review 1: This is indeed a brilliant book. I personally could not let it down and have found myself, numerous times, rereading passages and sometimes whole chapters. The obsession with and of fictional creation has always fascinated me as a writer. I felt this book to be the kind of book I would like to write. This book has given me what no book has ever have in terms of a complete and complementary reading experience.
review 2: This book is everything. I feel like the writer wrote a whole book and then edited it, leaving behind only the sentences she thought the reader would find himself/herself writing down, quoting. Perhaps she wrote it as a writer and then edited as a reader. To be honest, it really doesn't matter, the process behind it, for the result speaks for its... moreelf. It's beyond brilliant. It was a slow read. I had to take every single word in. Taste it. Savour it. Feel it. It's a wonderful experience! Indeed, it is. I am in love. less
