Has anyone actually read Jennifer Government? If you have, what did you think of it? I was at the library today and I looked for it, but the copy they had was checked out.

I forgot to look for it last time I was at the library, but right now I'm busy reading Harry Potter ^^()

I read the chapter that you can read on Max Barry's site. i want to read it but i cant find a copy here. aparently Barnes and Noble nor Borders carry it...

It's excellent. I forked out almost ?20 to order a hardback copy from the States and I don't regret it one bit - cutting satire and very, very funny. I'm now on the hunt for Syrup.

well shoot I just might have to get it.. I'm currenty reading and re-reading a brief history of time. :wacko:

God, and I hadn't even bothered to look. Although if you say it's good, Imrie, it might just be what I get on my next trip out to the bookstore.

It's well worth it!
Jennifer Government - Steinagel - 07-27-2003
I've never seen it before, but if I ever get around to the bookstore I'll look it up. :blink:
Jennifer Government - FlyingPig - 07-27-2003

Jennifer Government - bistmath - 07-27-2003
hm. a friend found it in a chapters (essentially the ONLY bookstore in canada...) it was expensive.. we're waiting for it to come out in paperback.
Jennifer Government - Coral Islands - 07-27-2003
as it has not come to France yet I'm trying to order it from an english bookstore, but it's quite expensive too.
Jennifer Government - Gatren - 07-31-2003
Actually I was just coming here to suggest everyone get it. It is a great book!

Got it from my local library and was hooked by the first chapter. Not only was its humor tongue-in-cheek, but the chilling nature of such a commercial world system was quite frightening. Excellent commentary!
Jennifer Government - Katie Miyake - 08-07-2003
I finally remembered to put it on reserve for myself...I also looked for Syrup, but it was at the library downtown, and we were in a hurry...
Jennifer Government - Dickvandyke - 08-07-2003
I checked it out from the library yesterday. I'm about a third of the way through so far. It's pretty interesting.
Jennifer Government - ancient races - 08-24-2003
