A good about job searching. This book was conceived for college students, but I still found some things really helpful. I liked that it was short and sweet and gave lots of tips. I haven't applied for a job in over 17 years, so.... ...more |

| I loved this book. It's a really hard book to classify. "The compound" is like a reality show, but a lot deadlier. Lily is our title character, and the story is told through her point of view. The show is a bit like Love Island, because the game star ...more | |

I hope you read the Identity interview. It's long and you have to read well into it. Dubus talks a lot about being a writer and "teaching" of writing, as well as use of workshops.
