Reacher is a good guy, but he does things his way which aren't always the "proper way" and is what I like about him. Also if you ever wanted to "drop-off the face of the earth" yet still live life your way, then the Jack Reacher stories are for you.

Audiobooks have proven that the audiobooks vs reading debates are finally over. Depending on the person and how they learn and retain information, listening to a book is just as good as reading it – sometimes even better.

YES. It's good enough to read twice. He has a unique ability in the books (that doesn't appear in the show due to it's need to be concise), to give entire cultures, clans, tribes, houses - a multi-dimensional feel. You start to think how they think, feel how they feel.

Lindt chocolate isn't thought of as poorly as Svein-Magnus portrays, although it's not considered excellent. Lindt is a decent mass-market manufacturer. Which means, it's about as good as you can get if you're not willing to spend the money required to get chocolate that's actually good.

I tried the Buttery Jack Burger and it had really good flavor. ... The burger patty was dry, as was the top of the bun, and it seemed kind of cheap, because it was. I have to repeat that it had really good flavor though. The veggies were fresh and crisp and the burger was well seasoned.

Dune is a very good SF novel and a fascinating book but it's not the “one true answer” or a ground-breaking philosophical treatise. Set expectations appropriately and you'll likely enjoy it. ... It won awards, it's a good read, but it's not the best sci-fi of all time, IMO.

It features a book by Nick & Matt Lang, and music & lyrics by Jeff Blim. The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals isn't one of Starkid's best musicals but it's not one of their worst, either. If I had to place it on a list, it'd probably be in the upper half of their musicals. It's very good and very enjoyable.

Are the Bourne books worth reading? The very first Bourne Identity, yes. But a lot of spy/thriller novels of that era have lost their weight post-perestroika. You're going to have to acclimate yourself to Cold War thinking again, with the paranoia and implied struggle with the iron curtain.

Yes. RCBS has a better external finish and some really nice knurling, plus the name/snob appeal to those affected by that, but they are good dies, on average. Lee's are also good dies, on average. There's really no average functional difference. I have sevaral sets of both brands and several others.

It's not a bad place to start, but one should definitely pick up a few classic trades of their favorite hero. They will help you get familiar with their universe and the charactrers in it. I also don't think the New 52 is going to last, but that's another story.

Yes. They are not just good movies, they are great movies- with a few cavets... They are long and even longer with the uncut versions- watch the uncut ones, they give a better idea about what's going on. They are reasonably faithful to the books.

Yes, Game of Thrones are a good series of books. Some excellent characters, great action, enjoyable world building. They are a commitment. ... I would really recommend them if you have time to read them, but these are not the type of books where you can read a chapter here and there and enjoy.

But you probably won't want to stop after you read it. I found each sequel about half as good as the book before it. I think Dune Messiah is the best book in the series. ... I read all the sequels but only liked the first couple, but Dune is by far the best.

If you are pretty interested in the Halo lore, then yes they are good. Judging just in terms of general fantasy/sci-fi novels, well then, some are better than others, and they might not all be considered great compared to the norm.

He's pretty good. He has great speed and surprisingly decent strength. He get's access to Warrior for an even better growth too. He makes a great father for Degel, Noire, and Nah because he passes down Pegasus Knight to them (because they can't inherit warrior, and Pegasus Knight replaces it).

Reading fiction is not a waste of time. It's true that we learn things differently from fiction than that from non-fiction books. But, nevertheless, there are many great life-lessons that one can learn from reading fiction alone. ... However, it is also true that not every fiction book is good to read.
