She disagreed...Kathleen, Mrs. Savage did email me. She disagreed with my characterization of the book and asked me why I didn't just DNF it and move on. I thought about it--I have quit finishing books I don't like, and generally quit reading them long before I could write a review any more complex than "the writing was awful". However, I read the majority of this book, and skimmed the rest It is a book that a lot of bloggers are reviewing, and they are generally positive. It is also a book I thought would be of interest to my readers. Those are the factors that went into my decision to review the book,rather than just to dnf it and move on. <br /><br />I know that authors put some of themselves into any book,and especially into a memoir. By criticizing the book, I am, I realize, criticizing her. I tried to do so without being cruel, but no one (not even book reviewers) likes to have his/her writing panned, much less his/her life choices.RAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04102249990885174107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13263155.post-26349795134344988072011-03-26T21:55:37.957-05:002011-03-26T21:55:37.957-05:00Thanks for hosting!Thanks for hosting!Moonshadowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11277057132720569896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13263155.post-15436433295084175762011-03-26T21:47:07.960-05:002011-03-26T21:47:07.960-05:00Thanks for hosting this RAnn!
