Cooper

Just entertaining enough of a concept to keep reading but overall not a very good book

Great book, could have been 30% shorter

My first venture into Kerouac. Absolutely fascinating to watch the stages of his breakdown, yet he ends on such an optimistic note. (and then a poem that I was unable to comprehend).

I marked at least five sections where Kerouac's ability to perceive and articulate his circumstance and environment were unlike anything I had ever read. Pure brilliance and clarity, even in the midst of madness.

Makes me want to go back and read On The Road, but I definitely need to take a break from him for a bit.

My only complaint of this book was that it was too short - I could have read this book for another 200 pages. One of the best historical fiction narratives I've ever come across.

25%-75% was fantastic. But Donna Tart doesn't know how to write endings. So disappointing
