I love when poets write outside of poetry. I find the writing so beautiful and moving.

This was a nice quick read for me. I enjoyed Patel’s writing, and I think he wrote his characters well. I sympathized with both Renu and Akash.

I think Krakauer is a gifted storyteller. However, the book seemed to wander too far from the central story at times. I appreciate the grace he had for McCandless. The cause of death exploration was a little rushed and confusing.

As always, I hate rating memoirs. I won’t speak on the authors personal experience, but the book is pitched as something different to what it is. It’s not so much a “blend of memoir and true crime� as it is a memory dump of the authors life. True crime signals some sort of reporting and laying out of the facts, but the author seemed extremely selective in what she chose to include about the crimes.

This is always talked about as one of Ishiguro’s best works, but it definitely wasn’t my favorite. I did appreciate the longing from Miss Kenton and the obliviousness of Stevens. Their dynamic was complex and I loved reading about it, but it was weight down by other plot points that didn’t quite connect for me.
