What We See When We Read by Peter Mendelsund

2.0

I don’t really disagree with much he says in here but i also didn't think it was thaaaat revelatory, maybe i actually was just not as interested in the subject as i thought since this book did sit on my shelf untouched for 5 years. The guys like a book over artist and a graphic designer but i actually Thought a lot of the graphics were mostly kind of annoying, like “clever” images you’d use in slideshow presentations.

honestly the whole book was kinda like a slideshow.

Tough to rate because even though I don't actually disagree with the argument, the presentation is so much of what this book is.

has been a couple months since i read this an I i have decided to give in to irrational hate. 2 stars sorry pete
