Are you feeling dangerous? You might not consider books and the act of reading as traditionally dangerous, but the books you read (or don't read) can definitely have a lasting effect on how you live your life. In The Year of Reading Dangerously, author Andy Miller recounts the entire year he spent reading fifty-two books—books he had started and never finished, or lied about reading in the first place, books that are great and others that are downright terrible—that ultimately turned into a year of discovery, soul-searching, and celebrating the miracle of the book and the power of reading.
“A delightfully irreverent account of reading 50 classic books…. Often very funny….His thesis is universal…we can all be enriched by losing ourselves among the bookshelves.” — Daily Telegraph (London)
“[A] readable, often funny account.... It’s not so much the content of the books that brings rewards, but the process of reading them and the thought this inspires.”— The Independent (London)
