This is me. No, not the rat

The Reason Why

So. This is my book blog. My ideas about the books I have (mostly) read. All alternative points of view, refutations, etc, gratefully received. Failing that, I’ll just talk to myself. Heck! I usually do!

Disclaimer

It may, at this point, behove me to confess that I have no qualifications in this area, beyond the obligatory ones, and know not whereof I speak. Furthermore, from my position of happy ignorance, I feel entitled to spout twaddle without recourse to academic rigour or the necessity of tiresome self-justification.
