Review: Tao of Jeet Kune Do

Tao of Jeet Kune Do by Bruce Lee
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

If you're familiar with Bruce Lee, you already have a good understanding of what is in this book. If you are not, this is probably not the best jumping off point.

Review: Need to Know

Need to Know by Karen Cleveland
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Saw some promising advance buzz about this but it just didn't measure up. Not believable at all.

Review: My Struggle

My Struggle by Karl Ove Knausgård
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

It's impressive that he has 6 volumes worth of struggle. The main thing that pecked at my brain was wondering what was true and what wasn't, since this was described as an autobiographical novel. It felt almost voyeuristic at times because he tells you so much in such detail.
