SARA NELSON SO MANY BOOKS, SO LITTLE TIME A YEAR OF PASSIONATE READING
Sara Nelson—editor, reporter, reviewer, mother, daughter, wife, and compulsive reader—set out to chronicle a year’s worth of reading. She had a system all set up: fifty-two weeks, fifty-two books … and it all fell apart the first week. She discovered that books chose her as much as she chose them, and the rewards and frustrations they brought were nothing she could plan for: ‘In reading, as in life, even if you know what you’re doing, you really kind of don’t.’ From Solzhenitsyn to Laura Zigman, Catherine M. to Captain Underpants, this is the captivating result, filled with wit, charm, insight, infectious enthusiasm—and observations on everything from Public Books (the ones we pretend we’re reading) and the idiosyncrasies of sex scenes (‘The mingling of bodies and emotions and fluids is one thing. But reading about it: now that’s personal’). She tackles the stresses of recommendation (‘What does it mean when someone you like hates the book you love?’) and the odd reasons we pick up a book in the first place.
