Hello, welcome to my blog

Mostly you will find, here, transcribed entries from the secret diary that I used to keep as a teenager between 1970 and 1975. I try to be honest with my transcriptions, but, just occasionally I do edit, to protect myself or others from embarrassment or some other emotion.
Also, though, I like to do a brief review of the books I have been reading, so these are interspersed throughout. I reserve the right to write blog entries, also, about other random things.
Why do I keep this blog? I don't know. I am an academic and one of my research interests is around how people construct their own identities. The diary transcriptions, and what I write about my books, are very much about revealing something of my identity.

Nicholas Sparks - just finished reading ....

The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks

6/10

What an intense love-story! I read it in about 4 days. Very nice, very poignant towards the end. A perfect relationship? Does this ever happen?
Not a very satisfying story, I think.

I find myself at odds with most Amazon reviewers, who drooled over it.
