I can’t even read a cereal box without skipping bits, and that might be important riboflavin information I need to know. It is not widely known that you have to read the book before you review it, and I knew freelance reviewers who didn’t always bother. On social media, twits used “selective quotes” to damn a book, a speech, a tweet, a joke. This is against the law — it is my law — that you have to read and understand something before you comment on it. I read both books with great pleasure, lost them in a house move, and have now bought new copies.
