My Life with Bob: Flawed Heroine Keeps Book of Books, Plot Ensues
debbiemd avatar reviewed on


I thought this would be more like a list of book recommendations with a little bit of memoir. It was more memoir and less book recommendations. The author starts keeping a list of books she has read while she is in high school. In this books she looks back over the list and tells her life story through the books. For example, after a divorce she read a lot of dark books and self-help books so they focus heavily on her list at that time. Interesting life story with lots of travel. And she has one of those dream jobs - NY Times Review of Books editor.
