Book Reviews of Finding Lost: The Unofficial Guide
Book Review: Well Written
Summary: 4 Stars
The book is quite interpretive, well written and well researched. Many questions were answered and connections disclosed that were heretofore unknown.Book Review: Finding Lost: The Unofficial Guide (

Good book if you enjoy both the show and readingBook Review: Interesting But Not Riveting
Summary: 3 Stars
The book contains some interesting background on the actors, but little to learn if you've watched the episodes a few times and read on-line blogs. Its format is easy to read and follow. My only real critique has to do with the "numbers." The author makes connections between the show's mystical numbers (4, 8, 15...) and seemingly everything under the sun. I don't think the majority of her number connections are pertinent, and to me they just seem silly, taking away from the appeal of the book.Book Review: Guess I already found Lost before hand...
Summary: 2 Stars
I was very dissapointed in this book.. Maybe I should have read it before I got up to date with the show, but in my opinion this book was written by someone who vaguely watched the show, then scoured the internet for theories. Many of her 'Nitpicks' and 'Oops' moments are actually not if you know what the writers are getting at, or have been explained a few episodes later. I won't be reading her next guide, I'll probably look elsewhere this time, if at all.Book Review: First impressions not great
Summary: 2 Stars
I ordered this whilst in the Maldives, watching LOST episodes yet to come to my English homeland. The book appears to describe the episodes and the meaning behind the plot. I have yet to read it properly but first impressions are not good. The black and white tiny photographs are of poor qaulity, the layout is just blocks of texts, and the bits I did read were rather flat in style. I will dip into it again when I get braver.
