It's nicer to listen to Garrison Keillor tell the story than to read it.

I was disappointed with this Kellor book. I read "Wobegon Boy" a couple of years ago and was excited that my book club choose Lake Wobegon Days.

I did not find the book a compelling read. There were many little segments that were interesting, much like the length of a "News from Lake Wobegon" segment, but if you want to book you 'can't put down', you may need to think of something else.

I thought I would be accused of heresy when I expressed this opinion at my book club here in Minnesota, but the feeling was nearly unanimous. With that said, the book did prompt the members to reminisce about our childhoods.
