4/6/17 Reviewing in the Rain
Chilly today, though interestingly the day also features summer-style thunderstorms with high winds and lightning.
Don Rickles died today. We all have an expiration date. So long Don.
Lincoln in the Bardo. George Saunders is a clever writer, technically proficient and yet I just don't connect emotionally with what he puts out. He writes nice stories that are quick reads and pass the time enjoyably but there's no emotional connection or "I want to read it again" reaction like I get from the reading I enjoy the most.
So there's today's Invisible Book Review. Maybe that's the next title for this thing, the Invisible Review of Books. If you review a book and nobody reads it did you really review it? Better go on Goodreads otherwise it's Schrodinger's Book Review.
