Summary: Worst reading guide
Comment: I've read them all, and this is about the worst. Trite, clicheed way of grouping the books; superficial reviews. I'm glad I got it at the library rather than purchasing it. Took me no more than ten minutes to go through it.
Rating: 5
Summary: An Excellent Book
Comment: I was looking for inspiration for something to read and found this book. The breadth and diversity of the authors and writing styles that Ellington and Freimiller bring to the reader expands ones reading horizon but stays accessable with an array of high quality works. I recommend this book as it will lead to multiple literary discoveries.

Summary: Having a Personal Preference in Our Reading
Comment: When I received "A Year of Reading" by Elisabeth Ellington I was amazed at the diversity of books she has listed and researched for members of book clubs or individual readers like myself. Her categories under each month allow me to select a writing style that fits my 'personal preference' for that month, whether it is the Crowd Pleaser, a Classic, or an intriguing Memoir.
I have shared this book with several people, one of whom is a used book dealer who is planning to help her customers find the right book for their 'personal preference' using Ms. Ellington's book. She finds that many customers are unfamiliar with current authors and she felt this book would be useful to both her customers and to her in stocking her store.
I have given it to my daughter who is an avid Classical book reader. Her first love is the literature of the 19th century. She reads with a critical mind even when reading for pleasure. She has also expressed great interest in expanding her reading realm.
This book is all about reading to suit your personal preference and I highly recommend it for the insight it will provide its readers.
