camscampbell 's review for:

Poetics by Aristotle
4.0

Read as part of my Humanities studies based on The Honest Broker's list. 
This was actually more enjoyable than I was expecting and a fine way to finish out 2024. I read Save the Cat a few years ago and DNFed Bird by Bird this year - Poetics was more useful than both of those books at explaining how to structure good writing. It's a quick read and I skipped the long introduction purely to have the book be included in my 2024 books (daft, I know). I'll probably come back to it at some point and may even buy a physical copy since I only had the Kindle version.
