Second Quarter Book Recommendation 2021
Four times a year, at the end of each quarter, I consider all the books I've read over those three months and offer my recommendation for one book I would suggest you try.
Not merely sticking to my favourite, but more in terms of which I would consider a good all-rounder for a broader audience.
This book is a rather depressing outlook on life, at least the lives of the characters within. There is little sympathy for the main character from any of the secondary characters we meet along the way. But the writing and story structure are very enjoyable.
My main reason for suggesting this book as one to read is pretty basic, it’s a classic that is easy to access and comprehend. Unlike a lot of the older sci-fi you might come across.
If you’re looking to introduce yourself to classic science fiction, The Shrinking Man is an excellent place to start.
