My dear and wonderful therapist fairly regularly loans books to me that...well...I cannot stand. I'm a reader, but very choosy about what I read. I very seldom like the "NY Times Bestseller" type of fiction or non-fiction. Apparently, however, my T does enjoy that type of reading material and delightedly shares those books with me.
She has been on break for a week. Lo and behold, she left me with a novel to read. I tried, I really did. I managed the prologue and half of the first chapter before I admitted that there was no way I could plow through that book. So I read reviews online to get the basic story in order to make some kind of positive comment to her about the (God-awful) novel.
Any ideas? Should I just smile and thank her for the read - or should I say...something...but what? I'm very open in therapy, but when it comes to the book thing...the last thing I want to do is hurt her feelings by telling her what I think. I swear, every time I see her put her hand on a book I cringe.
