And do take the time to write a bit about what interests you: the author's style, a topical interest, similar books that you or an acquaintance as read. For example, here's the one I am reading:



Broderick, Colin. That's That

This is Broderick's second memoir. His first explores coming to America from Ireland, working as a carpenter in New York, and struggling with drug addiction. I enjoy his tight prose and vivid imagery, something he seems to have developed in this memoir, which is about growing up in Northern Ireland during the 1970s and the time of The Troubles.
