Authors I can’t stand
I’m not a very picky reader - I like all genres and can appreciate something in most novels I read (that said, I believe books have different functions, and while I appreciate brain candy, I wouldn’t put it on the same level as Steinbeck). Three others that make me cringe, even after multiple tries, are…. drum roll please…..
1. Iris Johansen
2. Bill Bryson
3. Anne Tyler
I bring them up because everyone seems to love them. Anyone have any gripes with these as well?
Language, Books, Mountains, Knowledge, Quotes, Coffee, Poetry, Travel, and Celebration-of-beauty-in-life. I'm getting my MA in linguistics with a focus on language documentation at the University of Montana, Missoula. I love reading all kinds of books but my favorites are memoirs, travelogues, and historical fiction. I love writing and I love beautiful things and good people.
I have a fitblr/runblr at skinnyintellectual.tumblr.com. So if you're a fitblr and I follow you, you may be more interested in that blog than this one. Though, hey, maybe not!
