A list of books I've read recently with some occasional gibberish thrown in.

WORLDS FAIR - E. L Doctorow
Described as a semi autobiographical account of a boy named Edgar growing up in New York during the depression leading up to the World Fair in 1939.
I found it fully autobiographical and tedious. Why he chose to do it this way when a full memoir would have made more sense to me anyway.
Doctorow is a great writer but this like Loon Lake left me disappointed
