Welcome back to the forgotten shelf. This is day 21!
Watch the video for today, here or here.

The Book in short
In this critically acclaimed novel, Harry Rent finds himself single and lost after the passing of his wife. Although numbed by his life’s unexpected turn, Harry becomes fixated on Molly, an obsidian-haired, twenty-two-year-old waitress. Meanwhile, Harry is forced to fend off Clare, his sister-in-law, who is convinced that Harry is somehow responsible for her sister’s untimely death. At once deeply moving and darkly comedic, Harry, Revised is an extraordinary novel about the measure of a man’s worth, by a wonderful, emerging talent.

My Thoughts
As I said in the video, this was a book I really wanted to read. Not because I thought it was that good, but because I had not been able to. This is the book that started this whole series off, actually, it was the reason I started it, and I felt now, at day 21, it was time to read it.

And frankly, it was not a very good book. I didn’t think it was fun or interesting. But I am glad I could finally say I had read it, and maybe that to me was enough. It’s a way for me to give myself permission to donate the book along.

That was the forgotten shelf for today. I’ll see you tomorrow.
