"Your life amounted to no more than one drop in a limitless ocean!" "Yet, what is an ocean but a multitude of drops?" - David Mitchell, Cloud Atlas
Hello bookworms!  I wanted to make my first post about the book I recently finished.  And what a book!  It still lingers in my mind, the effect it had once I finished it.  I figured it would not only be a good way to start this blog, but also a way to introduce people to this gem.

Cloud Atlas, by David Mitchell.  At first I didn't know it was a book.  I saw the trailer for the movie first, and decided against watching it because it seemed too confusing, unfocused.  I had no idea what was going on when I first saw the trailer.  So I paid little to no attention to it.  I asked my friend about it, who simply said that he found it boring and confusing.  I didn't need convincing after that, so I passed.
