Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World's Most Dangerous Man by Mary L. Trump
5.0
The Meaning of Things: Applying Philosophy to Life by A.C. Grayling
Grayling seems to think that he has a lot of wisdom to impart with this book. His writing style is flowery and intelligent-sounding, but in terms of actual insight and solid judgment, The Meaning of Things lacks.
For the last twenty or thirty pages, I found myself reading to finish the book so that I could give myself credit for finishing another book, not because it kept my interest.
I disagree with certain points Grayling makes; I find many of them pointedly unwise and cynical.
I bought this book seeking sagacity, but now I am giving it to charity because I do not find it worth keeping.
