Rated Light 5/10

<div>WOW I did not care for this one. Some interesting ideas, and yeah, all the threads do start to come together (albeit three-quarters of the way through the book), and I didn't hate everything, but this read like "Wouldn't it be cool if all this physics and space travel also included HORNY WOMEN??"&nbsp;<br><br>And I'm not saying it's impossible for that to be cool, but c'mon dude. We can see what you're doing here. And your book is too muddled to pull it off.<br><br>I read this because an author I like recommended Harrison as a writer, and I'm not turned off entirely, but I'm also definitely not in a hurry to read more.&nbsp;</div>

Rated Life on Mars: Poems 10/10

How do I even begin to tell you how wonderful <i>Life on Mars</i> is? Tracy K. Smith's poetry fills me with peace and such fullness, even when she writes about how inhuman we can be. Her poems are almost meditative — I really enjoyed slowing down and focusing on her words, their rhythm, and the overall picture of the poem before me. Part space opera, part elegy, part wartime commentary, <i>Life on Mars</i> exceedingly deserves the Pulitzer it received, won on Smith's birthday, no less.<br><br>(My full review appears at <a href="http://glorifiedloveletters.blogspot.com/2012/08/life-on-mars-by-tracy-k-smith.html">Glorified Love Letters</a>.)
