Why oh why didn't I take the blue pill. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Group: Dumpshocked Posts: 6,545 Joined: 26-February 02 From: Gloomy Boise Idaho Member No.: 2,006 |
When reading a book (for review) there are several ways to approach it. You can read the whole thing as quickly as possible making notes as you go. Or you can read it chapter by chapter and look at those individually. This is what I have chosen to do.
Since the announcement back in March I have read and participated in many of the SR4 threads. I loved some of the ideas and hated others. What I hope to accomplish is to let the rest of the DSF community in on the new BBB so that they can make an informed decision on whether to buy the hardback, the PDF, or not at all. I am going to read the book a chapter at a time. I will then right on my overall opinion of the chapter and subject material. Hit on what is good, bad, and ugly. I will try and just use my opinions of the book in my hands. So no outside influence or other peoples opinions will influence me. Feel free to post comments on what I say, agree disagree etc. If you are looking for something in particular in the book ask and I will see what I can do. I hope this helps you make a informed decision. |
