I know the feeling. Were it not for the New Leaf Book Club reads, I'd find myself reading dreck that struggles to be 3 stars. (And which you would
undoubtedly rate at 1 or 2 stars.
) Hemingway, of all people, pulled me out of my doldrums this month, and I can only hope that next month's book does as well. But I'm _not_ hopeful.
OTOH, perhaps I'll read one or two of the others that didn't make the cut -- there were definitely a couple that looked like they would be winners.
