Review of 'DIY' on 'Goodreads'

No rating

yikes. a real drag so far. poorly-told rehashing of several well-covered histories, really superficial investigation into major counter-cultural events, a bit depressing. but, it has clued me into the Desperate Bicycles, which has been a fun discovery.

blargh. done with this one. pretty bland.

ok ok if you're a 17 year old with little exposure to any type of alternative western culture, this might be a good place to start, so long as you can suffer through the stifling prose. sorry!
