I'm not really the non-fiction type of girl- I mean I have read a few non-fiction books, but I can't say I have exactly read an array of non-fiction books or experienced very many styles of non-fiction writers. Most recently I have read An Inconvenient Book by Glenn Beck, which I found extremely amusing. And the Summer Reading assignments, FFN, as well as On Writing.
Fast Food Nation wasn't exactly my favorite it was dry and factual- interesting topic, but boring display. On Writing was fantastic.. King had such a natural way of explaining his trade.. I wouldn't say I was a feverish fan like Mr. Logsdon or anyone.. Glenn Beck's book on the otherhand, was my favorite of all three. It was hysterical- had me laughing from beginning to end. If you have ever tuned into Glenn Beck on FOX, which most of you have not, ha, you know he is a bit crazy... But his ADD turns into a fabulous book.. it's full of good points, random points, and maybe points that are a little far out there..
I wouldn't say Beck is my "Literary Bestfriend" but I found his book quite funny and I really enjoyed his crazy, disorganized writing style- even if it is a bit far fetched..
