Word of mouth

There is nothing like getting a good recommendation of a book that comes from someone who has really enjoyed it. Their passion can make you sail through the first few chapters sure that the destination is goling to be worth it.

So it was after my boss enthused about Ragtime by E.L. Doctrow that I headed to Waterstones and picked up a copy. The blurb confirmed his general overview and so it is in an attempt to read a work that not only describes an America of the past but speaks to an America of today that I start this recommended reading journey.
