book discussion
topic: summerland
I've read this, and I thought that it was alright, even if it really isn't my type of book. Present day fantasy combined with baseball just doesn't strike me as great, but I thought that the writing was pretty good.
I don't even like baseball, but I loved this book. I liked the description that baseball is just a way to make us slow down and enjoy a summer evening.
I like present day and 'urban' fantasy. This wasn't exactly urban, but it is set in a world that is most definitely ours, with add-ons. Chabon is a wonderfully descriptive writer.
