Title: The Painter
Author: Peter Heller
Rating: DNF (Did not finish)
Summary: Jim Stegnar is a successful painter with some anger issues and a passion for fly fishing. He's also mourning the death of his daughter. He escaped to Colorado after the last time he lost his temper in New Mexico. He lost his temper AGAIN and is now back in New Mexico. Blah blah blah.
Review: Was this a book about a painter? Or a fly fisherman? Or was it about a tortured soul who couldn't keep his temper in check and was being sought out by the "associates" of the guy he killed? I haven't the faintest idea nor did I care so I gave up.

Book review: Clever Girl (DNF)
Title: Clever Girl
Author: Tessa Hadley
Rating: 1 out of 5 stars
Summary: This story follows Stella's life from her childhood with her mom into...adulthood? I'm not sure how far the book goes into Stella's life. I gave up on the book about a third of the way in.
Review: This book wasn't unreadable, it just wasn't very interesting. Thus the Did Not Finish (DNF) status. I read about a hundred pages and just...lost interest. It could be my mood. Maybe I'll revisit it one day...
