I love Susan Orleans writing her book about libraries is one I have given to friends.I enjoyed Joyride from beginning to end .A memoir that shares how the author found her inspiration and zest for writing.a wonderful guide.#NetGalley #joyride

To use the author’s own words about what story telling should be, her life story kept me “pinned to the page.” Orlean’s description of writing about the ordinary is more of an invitation to, than a lecture about, curiosity. If I was mentoring a younger person with a passion for writing, I would recommend this book as an encouraging voice to not only write about what you know, but learn about what piques your interest, then write your story! Her excitement as her writing career developed is contagious.
Thank you to #NetGalley and #SimonandSchuster, publisher, for providing a complimentary eARC in exchange for an objective review.
