Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

Dandelion is a book to be savored and reread and kept on one’s shelf of literary treasures. Every paragraph is a poem that pulls tattered old memories out of storage and breaths color and life into them again.

The writing is so good, that the air of empathy and kindness which pervades the book transcends any fears. I was riveted by the prose and enthralled by the story. To steal a descriptor from a friend, it's utterly lovely.

Lavinia nebbs and some of her friends are worried about the disappearance of another of their friends. They find the police and, after he finishes questioning them, they are free to leave.

Cons

Dandelion wine written by ray bradbury is a terrible novel. This is not who the great bradbury was. Douglas spalding's magical adventures in the summer of 1928 are, in one word, boring.

Book is painfully sentimental and amateurish. It skips around and the pieces just don't fit together. Peppered with improper grammar and a few spelling errors, it frustrates the common grammar * even more.

Price

On ebay the price has already jumped $50.

The price is creeping up, so if it pulls on you, hurry, as amazon has only 4 used ones left.

Shipping

Came on time with no damage, just as expected.

It was delivered to her quickly, and i recd a lovely photo from amazon via email of the package on her front porch.

The town was, after all, only a large ship filled with constantly moving survivors, bailing out the grass, chipping away the rust.

The seller got the book to us in just a couple of days.

Competitiveness

The story line was a bit harder to follow than other novels by ray.

Bradbury seems to be more prone to use descriptive language as it relates to objects rather than people which allows the reader... Read More
