About Me

My photo
I'm a reader who enjoys posting comments and recommendations about the books I read. You will not find a synopsis with my recommendations because you can just click on the book title for a link to www.goodreads.com for a synopsis and reviews by other readers. I prefer the 3 Reason format: the reason I chose to read it; the reason I liked (or disliked) the book; and the reason I recommend it.

The Last Boy: Mickey Mantle and the End of America's ChildhoodThe Last Boy: Mickey Mantle and the End of America's Childhood by Jane Leavy
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

This ebook was free when I downloaded it from Barnes and Noble to my Nook library.

I did not finish the book because I did not like the author's style of piecing together the myths of what the sportswriters wrote about then with what she could document when she searched for what really happened.

I gave up after the chapter about Maris and Mantle.
