Ratings and reviews

As my regular google apps download without my credit card information I would expect google books to do the same. I'm sure google will eventually change that as well. If it's free there should be no credit card required, otherwise I'll pass and side load this book from some other source. my credit card information is sadly floating around enough already. So I could put in my info I know but I just wanted to voice my opinion instead. No thank you.

I saw the movie adaptation of this novel and couldn't wait to read it. However I feel a little let down. Yes movies and novels are different but they should have some similarities right? While I loved the detail, I struggled to engage with what was happening and got confused. Didn't feel worth my time even as an avid sci-fi reader.

I'm not giving you my credit card number to read a free book. Had to remove my cc# due to Google apps charging me on the sly in the first place. I will never enter my cc# here or on PlayStation or Xbox or anything like it. I'm also not going to buy a card to read a FREE book either.
