24 Hour Read

    Was at the library yesterday and on the way out I picked up a copy of A Million Little Pieces by James Frey. I read the first 20 or so pages in the library and had to keep reading in a half voyeuristic/half intrigued way. It’s definitely not what I usually go for, but it was just an amazing read - kind of like watching a train wreck. I finished it a few hours ago - it’s not a short book, but I read it at every opportunity (mainly when going through countless reboots of this computer I’m currently using, which is almost up to scratch). It’s the kind of novel that I would never read if it was recommended to me by someone else, but because I stumbled on to it by accident, it grabbed me by the scruff of my neck and took me by surprise. Searing is maybe a word that would be a legitimate descriptor. Yike. Recommended to TKP.
