Day 13
James Salters last novel portraying reality from WW2 to about 2010. You either love or hate this book. I fall in the unpopular opinion of the former. Perspectives can change in an instant without any form of cue. You have to read it to find out where you fall.

Today's read #amreading #todaysreading #booktube #booktubemademebuyit, interesting use of perspective and voice, and extremely well written. If you like stoner, then, I think you might like this book.

I couldn't decide between posts for today's #augustofpages #bookphotochallenge post on used books, so I'm going to post twice! First up - recent used bookstore hauls, as I'm very lucky to have two Value Village stores with good book sections close by. No more than $4.99 a book and always buy four get one free.

aeeklund Wow... This selection is amazing! 8y
