I don’t give half-star ratings because I think it’s kind of weaselly. 5 different ratings (or 6 if you count no stars, which I don’t) should be enough to summarize my opinion about anything.

But I was on the fence about this book. 4 stars or 5 stars? Is it a perfect book? No, but what book is? (Feel free to respond with your perfect books.) Is it a book I expect to come back to time and again, like other books I’ve rated 5 stars? Probably not, but I haven’t re-read Stephen Jay Gould’s Wonderful Life either, and that book is profoundly wonderful.

But I love these sorts of little stories. I love some more than others, of course. The haunting ones, the ones where you feel like you could almost step through and see the story unfold, if only you could find the trick to it. The “we don’t know what this person/animal/rock thought about this, but we can probably guess” ones.

So, if you like those kinds of stories, then you should read this book.

This episode of “The Memory Palace” #podcast just crossed my path again, and as its writer/narrator Nate DiMeo says much more eloquently, it’s timely.
