Two more books
I forgot to mention yesterday that I also recently finished Anne Tyler’s Breathing Lessons. It was a decent read. Certainly well-written but not what I would consider a good book or an enjoyable one. It follows a middle-aged couple through a long Saturday’s events but doesn’t manage to be particularly insightful or revelatory. It was easy to read though and went quickly.
I also just finished another PG Wodehouse. I love that man’s work. Picadilly Jim was amusing and heartwarming, so basically all you need in a comic novel. I mus also say that I am ever more in love with the Overlook Press editions. They are just fantastic. Lovely jackets, lovely pale-blue bindings, and the perfect size and shape: a little short and a little squat.
