Before I read A Week at the Airport, I was under the impression that the book would prove to be really boring. Surprisingly I was wrong. The book, although non-fiction, was very descriptive of the author’s surroundings in Heathrow Airport and often told tales of the various people he met while at the airport. I think I liked the book in the end because of the story-like way the author told his experiences. While I was reading the book, I also happened to be passing through Heathrow Airport during October break on my way to the United States. This made the book even more intriguing as I was reading it while in the exact same place the book was set.
The next book we have to read for book club is called Into the Forest, by Jean Hegland. I’m excited to read this next book because it is fictional post-apocalyptic novel opposed to the non-fiction books we have been reading recently.
