bailedBailed after 200 pages. The book desperately needed a better editor, and after reading some Goodreads reviews, helped make up my mind to just forget about this convoluted story that needed condensing and a better ending. Life's too short for bad books.
I'll go ahead and start a reread of Rebecca.
I thought this sounded good and kinda spooky.. we're only a few days into November, so it's still not too late for spooky season, right? 🙂 hoping it's a good pick.
pickApparently when my brain needs a rest, this is what I go to. A 1965 biography?/study?/hagiography? of Princeton basketball star Bill Bradley. Bradley would go on to a Rhodes scholarship, an NBA career with the Knicks, a long period as a US senator and a serious president candidacy. But that all happened after McPhee‘s awe-filled exploration of a then young mr. perfect. What weird? It works. It‘s a terrific book.
bailedPretentious and sexist, I bailed on this book after chapter 3. I like the idea of a book based mystery that is not a cozy mystery, but I don‘t have time for a bunch of bros.
