![]() ![]() I expect goodness when I sit down to read. Now, I’m not exactly one of those kind of people. They don’t even want to think about it very hard. That don’t ring any of my bells or wave any flags - even lots that don’t ring bells or wave flags for anybody - because some people just like to read something that makes them forget for a time. Because, honestly, there is a huge market out there for stories that I’m going to think are perfectly mediocre. ![]() I think this has produced somewhat of a scarcity mentality in my head though. ![]() I’m also an engineer though, and so the old saying that, “If you want to finish the project, you’re going to have to kill the engineer” (meaning that the engineer will keep working on a project for forever until it’s perfect) floats around in my mess of a brain too. It’s also frequently easy to fall into the trap of thinking that every book that is published should be the “best book that it can be”. Saying this one is good, and this one is bad, and this one was just kinda meh. It’s easy, as a reviewer, to dole out ratings for books. ![]() I’ve had something on my mind the last couple of months. ![]()
