Wonderful Novel

Geyser Life is simply one of the best contemporary novels I?ve read in the last five years. It was engaging, entertaining, thought-provoking, and funny, a thorough pleasure that I lead me to feel sad when I had finished because I wanted the experience to continue. I was extremely impressed by Hardy?s ability to manage several different first-person voices in the novel, each of them a distinct character, each one interesting in its own way. I have recommended this novel to people I know, and I?d recommend it to anyone looking for a excellent novel that is both readable and intelligent. I can?t wait for Hardy?s next work.

An interesting book

I found this first novel really interesting. The characters were familiar but not like those in other books. I loved the structure and plot, both of which kept me reading. I learned something about families, including my own, from the ways in which the sister, brother and father related to each other. I would recommend this book highly.
