I'm finding myself tempted to drop it, or at the very least power through quickly to then end so I can say I finished it and move on to one of the other books on my list to read (let's just say if my Living Page would EVER arrive, that temptation would be even greater! Alas, it is still lost at sea...). I think Smith raises some important questions worth thinking about - and have enjoyed the interactions back and forth on this topic by reading it in a book club format - but at the same time I've not really enjoyed or agreed with his approach to finding answers to those questions.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17576009644971020668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-692264042634562455.post-77900275355555012152014-03-06T09:13:42.033-05:002014-03-06T09:13:42.033-05:00Exactly - it has to be both.
