Julie B. (heartinthehighlands) reviewed If Erik Larson wrote it, I want to read it on 10/15/2008 + 54 more book reviews

Helpful Score: 1

There are some writers that are just good writers. This may not be quite as compelling as 'Devil in the White City', but it doesn't really matter. Erik Larson is just a good storyteller. He gives all sorts of details around someone's life or invention that are just fascinating. He makes the person and that person's time in history come alive. So I liked Thunderstruck very much...and 'Isaac's Storm'...and 'Devil in the White City'. I feel this way about David McCullough also. He makes the person, the event, the time of the story come alive.
