Hearts In Atlantis

[Bryan James]

Keep that book. Quit reading it. Stick it somewhere safe. Buy another copy. Read that then watch the movie, Hopkins is great.

I'm not a collector of anything, but a first ed. mis. might be worth something.

Someday.

Bryan may be right. I've never heard of another copy of Hearts in Atlantis with blank pages.

I guess that means yes stuff is missing, i thought maybe one page then blank then continues on, wouldn't want that book. Hey maybe its a collectors item now.? Any way, go to the library or used book store and pick up another, i enjoyed this book. you probably will to.

Thanks for all your feedback on the topic. I've finished the book, and I'll definitely keep it safe. It may definitely be worth something someday, so why not!

I read this book a few years ago. From what I remember, it just didn't make any sense to me. I was very confused when I finished it and not very happy. LOL Not even sure I kept it....

From what I remember, it was 4 different stories that didn't seem to be connected to me at the time. I kept waiting for that "Aha!" moment, but it never came. Maybe I should give it another try....

Im sure Calvin Tower would love that book!

I have read this one about 4 times and to be honest with you it is one of my favorites, but there are parts that I am like "okay..what's going on?" BUT, i will say, when it happens, keep reading and it will all clear out. also, the guts of the story is what matters and i think i have such a different view of vietnam and the soldiers that went that it made a difference to me completely. good luck!

Just checked... no blank pages. I found HiA great but frustrating.. really wanted to learn more, especially "Low men in Yellow coats" - also found it quite scary as it seemed in my 6th form (UK - High School in the US?) we seemed to do nothing but play hearts... just wondering if Sai King had second sight.

On a scale of 1-10 of IT or the Stand is a 10 where would you put Hearts in Atlantis?

For whatever reason I have on occasion tended to avoid reading the book when it doesnt look all that appealing to me and I have seen the movie.

I want to get around reading this so how good a book is this one?

I know its all subjective but humor me please.

Probably a lot of people would disagree, but I did not care so much for Hearts in Atlantis. Maybe because I had just read the DT series and I expected it to be more about the Tower and what not. Its really more about Vietnam and like someone said earlier, I didn't really see how the different sections tied in to one another.
