Ahh, when I can't seem to write fiction, it is nice to know that I can always fall back on getting my rant on.
( 11. The Group — Mary McCarthy ) Reading this book was a bit too much like being stuck at an interminable party full of people you don’t much like—and who make no secret of the fact that they freakin' hate you.
( 12. Audition — Ryu Murakami ) Well played.
( 13. Eight Days of Luke — Diana Wynne Jones ) You can see why Gaiman wanted to do something else with the material: something vaster; something that, even if it’s still imperfect, nevertheless has consequence.
( 14. Someday This Pain Will Be Useful to You — Peter Cameron ) Exploring James' lonely psyche will make you feel less so.
( 15. Haruki Murakami and the Music of Words — Jay Rubin ) Murakami’s just this guy, you know? And that’s actually pretty awesome.
( 16. My Summer on Earth — Tom Lombardi ) Life is cruel sometimes.
( 17. First Contact — Evan Mandery )This is honestly very good, though. You should read it even if they won’t.
( 18. The Lost City of Z — David Grann ) This is the kind of true-life story that even the best fiction would have a hard time rivaling.
( 19. The Art of Racing in the Rain — Garth Stein )Whether or not this is a “man’s book,” it is definitely not a book for me.
( 20. The Unfinished Angel — Sharon Creech ) I always liked it when things happened.
