Nick Hornby wrote a regular column for a magazine about what he was reading and why. This is a published collection of those articles. While some articles are insightful and interesting (his review of books on autism was fascinating) much of the articles rehash previous ideas, without an elaboration (for example, that authors should be alowed to take some libertis with their prose). Honestly, I found this disappointing, and spent the last 50 pages or so waiting for it to end. However, I did pick up 4-5 recommendations for novels/texts based on the reading, so, based on that metric, it wasn't a complete waste of time.
Edit: gotta stay 1 step ahead of CD this year. Already falled behing clock and steve. :S
