not to bust your bubble, but i thought timeline was stupid. it was so unoriginal and i guessed everything that happened. bad book.

ekulu ekuluOG 2002

NO. Obviously u read the wrong book or perhaps you dont read english well. i dont know. Timeline was so good that i read all 400 pagees of the so called "stupid" book in 4 days! It was VERY, good, very suspenseful, very involving, and action packed. And for your information there doesnt need to be a THREAT to move along the plot of the book. Just go read Cat in the Hat and be happy.

okay. i defintely read the right book. and any book does need a threat or problem to move the book along. otherwise it would just not be interesting (such as this book). no action. all the problem solutions were so obvious. and i like cat in the hat. it was a very good book! (unlike this one)

ekulu ekuluOG 2002

What are you talking about? It was full of action! Almost every moment kept me in suspence until the very end! And obviously you have no appreciation for or little understanding of quantum physiscs. That alone made the bok awesome!

malibu malibuOG 2001

you could easily see the solution to every problem. it was right in front of their faces and took them 2 hours to figure them out. and quantam physics is explaned so simply. how could you not get it?

ekulu ekuluOG 2002

what are you talking about???? gimme an example of where something was "right in front of their faces" like that? What about the very beggining, when they walked away from the machine and the first thing that happened? Every moment wa suspenseful. Soemthing was always going wrong. Plus, i learned so much from reading that book. It's filled with so much knowledge here and there. The book was written suspensefully and the suspense progressed perfectly to the end, and there was a good payoff. The plot was tructured simply but it was done well.

DON'T READ IF YOU PLAN ON READING THE BOOK! the guy was obsessed with the past. he learned a language that no longer existed. he said he always wanted to live there. he fell in love with a girl there. they were all worried about who wanted to stay back and stuff, HE WANTED TO STAY BACK! there was no big sacrafice or solution. he spent his whole life for this oppurtunity.

ekulu ekuluOG 2002

well then thats the payoff at the end! The main thing is that they wer stuck there and they wanted to get out alive! That was not even a main part of the story!!!!! My goodness.

my only question is: 2 hours of reading time, or 2 hours of the characters' time?

malibu malibuOG 2001

2 hours of character time. and its stupid because their whole problem is that they only have 24 hours or something to have a solution and they spend 2 hours on this little problem that has an easy solution. but it just may take 2 hours of reading time til you find out the solution.
