I hate this book. I love this book. I cried and swore at this book. I feel the frustrations that Enzo feels when he can't say what he wants. He can't communicate except by actions or "gestures" as he states. The storyline is well done and eventhough the "Stephen Hawking" piece seems far-fetched (no pun intended), I didn't care. I wanted this book to have a hero and Enzo does but in a subdued way.

Overall this book is......quirky. It is neither good or bad which made me think all the more when I read through it. The first paragraph was so detailed that it drew me into the book, but the rest, just like the title states, are random stories and the author explaining them. Now, what really made me enjoy this book is when I finished it, and throughout reading, I kept thinking 'I liked this/I liked that' but the book is just the way the author thinks. He is able to explain his train of thought or what he was thinking at the time he started or attempted to work on a piece. Sometimes I feel frustrated with the stories and sometimes I'm in awe. The book itself and the way the author composed it made me feel like he felt at the time these thoughts were taking place. Usually you don't see or read books like that. I wish this book would've been longer.

I am not much for religion and even more so not for reading it but this book was entertaining. Just like the author mentions the power of a stream, this book is easygoing, to the point and envelops many thoughts and actions of people around us. I enjoy the examples the author uses besides the conversations between the Winnie the Pooh characters, but having those interactions included really keeps in mind the "mind of a child" mentality and innocence the author is trying to get across. Very pleased with this book.

I couldn't put this book down. Not because it was suspenseful or action packed, but because Berendts' writing style is so easygoing. The development of each character is great because it really makes everything so much more realistic. Sometimes weirder things do actually happen in true life. There is no shortage of odd in this book but it's more than that, it's the spirit and the culture of Savannah and it's people that he captures. Totally unique. I have read this book over and over again.

Not for the easily unnerved but definitely fascinating! Not a "coffeetable" book but the information and pictures in this book are.......different and interesting. I work in the medical field and found this book to be to my liking. Yes, I am sane but there are certain things in the world that pique are interests.
