Sarah I couldn't wait until later in the month so I'm reading this today. Possibly the whole thing because I'm already pretty hooked :)


Nyssa | 2023 comments I read Lexicon last year and had mixed feelings.


Mark (madrigale_11) | 1 comments I really enjoyed this book, the premise was original or at least I think it was. Am certain to read it again.


Sarah I also really enjoyed it. I've owned this for a long time and I'm kicking myself for not reading it sooner. I also thought it was a very original book. I loved the neurolinguistics angle and the way they only had to ask four questions to know you. Particularly, I was intrigued that on the "Why did you do it?" question, a response popped easily into my mind. I won't say what it was but it was there :)

I wasn't crazy for the parallel storylines at first but I loved the way they finally got to where it made sense to have the two.
