As an author I'm practically obligated to read books. Not only does reading books influence me as a writer, especially where the literary works of prolific authors are concerned, but it also helps me to expand my knowledge base so that I may write with more authority.
Probably the most limiting factor, however, in my voracity for reading is that I am by nature very particular about the books I read. I'm easily bored, and so critical of language that it's oftentimes difficult for me to find a book, by any author, that I enjoy to the point that I feel compelled to finish reading it, word for word. Therefore, there are relatively few books for which I am willing to give my recommendation.
My Lobotomy is one of those books.
