Review of 'What to Read and Why' on 'Storygraph'

I think I like Prose' fiction better, but this is another gem like Reading Like A Writer. My favorite chapters were on Complimentary Toilet Paper, Lolita, and Mavis Gallant. I am reading all those authors now.

I like when she was able to related her own works like Blue Angel and A Changed Man to the other works and the writing process.
