A circle of two
3 stars
I read this together with a friend in an attempt to create a small (2 person) book circle. We read a couple of novels, then called each other on the phone and talked for an hour (repeat every two or three weeks until read). It worked great! Not only did we manage to see dimensions of the stories otherwise lost; we also expanded our respective literary universes through free associations to other authors and books, as well as movies, music, real life experiences and so on.
Oh, yes, the stories, you ask. How did I like them? Some were good, others not so great. One or two were really funny and interesting. And I will carry certain triggers and disturbances with me for a long time.
In a good way, mind you!
