I’ve spent the last week or more trying to write a short (1000-1200 words) book review. I’m still not sure that I’m done with it, but what I first wrote ended up sounding like a bad academic essay more than a book review. It kind of scared me. When I started college at the age of 30 I hadn’t had to write an essay in over a dozen years, at least. Maybe more. I can’t remember the last essay I wrote in high school, but I’m pretty sure it wasn’t very good. Oh and after high school I went to community college for a short while, and I probably had to write an essay or two there. One would think. I went to two, no three! community colleges. I bumped around in community college about as much as I’d bumped around in high school (I also went to three high schools.)
