Short and to the point Fleming pulls off another interesting Bond adventure. But only including him in the last half of the book. (  ) JBreedlove | Sep 25, 2009 |  In view of the entire series, The Spy Who Loved Me added some variety into the picture. While the variety was fun at times, and gave a new perspective to James Bond, by itself it was not that enjoyable. The majority of the book seemed to be establishing the main character, rather than telling an exciting story. When I read a Bond book it is because I want a story a) about Bond, and b) full of action. This work did not live up to my hopes, but is worth a read if you are a junkie for reading the entire series. (  ) tyroeternal | May 9, 2009 | This was the first Bond book I've read. I didn't expect anything going in, so I was not disappointed. It is a short book and an easy read. James Bond didn't appear until 1/2 way through the book though, so it got a little boring waiting and waiting. Over all it was worth the time to read it, but I'm not sure it motivates me enough to read more. ( ) mcdermott | Apr 20, 2009 | By far the worst Bond novel I’ve read. Bravely this is told from the perspective of the heroine – but it means that Bond doesn’t appear until approximately ½ way in, by which time we are long since bored. It also includes the incredible line: “Every woman likes to be half-raped”. (  )1  marek2009 | Mar 11, 2009 | This one was my first James Bond novel. After more than a decade I re-read it yesterday and I have to say it is still a great novel. Highly recommended. (  ) Zare | Jan 29, 2009 |  no reviews | add a review
