REVIEW: No Straight Road Takes You There: Essays for Uneven Terrain by Rebecca Solnit (2-stars)

 I have really enjoyed the author's writing in the past and this one was painfully uneven. It is more like a collection of blog posts -- including a bit of a soapbox rant about why non-linear non-fiction is misunderstood (in reference to "Orwell's Roses" criticisms). 

Some of the essay had lukewarm points but mostly forgettable this time around.

Play nice - don't say things here that you wouldn't say to me or any other complete stranger in person. That doesn't mean you can't express a different opinion or experience but do it in a civil and respectful way.

Links to cute cat and garden pictures highly appreciated as are donations of homemade vegan sweets.

NO SEO spam or link building every time I mention "cinnamon." I will delete those comments.
