Summary: sometimes fascinating, often intriguing, ultimately bizarre
Review: bascially I like the book but the ending was so bizarre, I am still wondering what the point is. oh well, I guess if it was predictable, there would be a ton of people complaining about that...still, i never saw it coming. i'd recommend it...not overly gross. seems like a book that would come from a recluse, albiet intellectual.

Summary: Ugh. Gimmie a break.
Review: Ugh. I won't spoil it for everyone but if this book ended by aliens came down and sucked Hannibal Lecter up to their spaceship for mating rituals, THAT would have been a move believable ending. Hannibal? No, Horribal.

Summary: You were expecting the Michelin Guide to Fine Dining?
Review: So the book is a little sloppy. So the story did not end the way a formula detective story would. When you cook with a diabolically insane cannibal, don't expect a familiar recipe. The ingredients in this concoction are seldom found at the local supermarket. Try it. You may acquire a taste for something other than ffffava beans.

Summary: Boring
Review: What a disappointment. I loved Harris' earlier books and was very much looking forward to this one. I read half the book and couldn't make myself keep picking it up.Harris had two fascinating characters to work with and blew it.

Summary: Keeps getting better
Review: I enjoyed this book and can't wait until they make the movie. When's the next book come out?

Summary: This book is an insult!
Review: I have never been so insulted! Harris must think his readers are idiots if he dares to end this book the way he did.

Summary: Open your mind and this book will amaze you. It's worth it!
Review: I respect the way that Mr. Harris handled this book. I would never have expected to root for Hannibal Lector, but I found myself doing so. When you get past all the gore, you'll learn what makes Hannibal "tick" and suddenly you are on his side. You'll discover a relationship between Hannibal and Clarice that is both spellbinding and compassionate. The ending that was perfect! It could not have ended any other way. Thank you Mr. Harris for "closure".

Summary: What the heck happened?
Review: This book was HORRIBLE! I can't believe I wasted my time reading it - a whole day...poof! Is this the same man who wrote Red Dragon? Nothing in this book was remotely scarey or spine tingling or even edgy. The villain was just gross and unbelievable, the hero - I guess Clarice and Hannibal share that dubious title? - well, what can I say about those two? She came across as not exactly the sharpest tool in the shed. And he. Oh my. I never thought I'd say Hannibal Lecter was dull and uninteresting, but he was. Boring is my verdict. I certainly hope Mr. Harris got paid bigtime for this one, because I believe he's just lost a bunch of fans.

Summary: Its good, i have nightmares...
Review: Somehow,Harris doesn't really make the book that gross out, but there a certian way that he writes that makes me want to continue and i get really stressed out and my mind starts wandering...

Summary: Kind of liked it ...
Review: I love Clarice. And I love Hannibal. But I didn't want them to fall in love with one another. The idea I've always had of Clarice is that she is a strong woman - surely getting screwed by the FBI and coming face-to-face with man-eating pigs would not lead her to eloping with a cannibal?! The book was enjoyable for shock-value; I did like the many Harris witticisms; and I found the references to King Henry VIII, Dante, Judas Iscariot etc interesting. It's the kind of book that knocks your socks off at the time, but is ultimately forgettable - much like the sequels to Interview with a Vampire.
