I like to keep a record of media I have consumed.

I grabbed this off of Anna's stack of books to kill time while the autopilot steered us down the Chesapeake Bay.  Right away I could see where the entire plot was going, but there is some satisfaction to be derived when the book meets your expectations.  The book wraps up competently with enough interesting things happening.

Some passages, especially describing Sanna's inner thoughts, gave me a perception that the book is is targeted towards a female audience.  It is interesting to read something like that on occasion.

A great sequel, improved in many ways and true to the spirit of its predecessor.

A little bit more story but again I didn't really get that into it.  Some additional interesting mechanics, a second character in some puzzles, and very cool graphics.  Again one level with trippy upside-down walking but it was a bit more understandable to my eyes.

The game says to make sure you have the sound on in the beginning and it is right, the sound design is amazing.

Here is a list of the computers that I or my family has had over time, as I remember them.  A lot of this is written 10-20 years after I last saw these devices so a few details might not be a little off.
