![]() I don't want to imply that the book was boring it wasn't the book's fault that I read it late into the night after having gotten very little sleep the night before. ![]() Well, I am going to call this an STB (slept-through book) with a rating of ++, which is the highest possible rating. No, that doesn't mean "sexual transmitted book." You see, books are mentioned throughout this book, as would make sense the author gives comments on each book - whether he has not heard of the book (UB - unheard of book), books he has skimmed (SB), books he has heard about (HB), and books he has read but forgotten (FB). Like when humorists write about politics.Instead, I found this to be an STB. The word I latched on to was "witty," thinking this was going to be a serious joke book - extremely hilarious writing about a topic that needs real consideration. ![]() Everything I read about this book before I read it promised a witty, beautifully styled text that advised the reader on how to, well, talk about books he hasn't read, but also how to deal with social situations in which the reader finds himself having to lead intellectual discussions about a book he hasn't read. ![]()
