Boarding in Hell

The reading that Dan Josefson gave was such a insight of his new book, "That's Not A Feeling".  He starts off a bit shy, but as he gets into the reading he really draws you in. The overall demeanor of the presenter was enough to make you want to buy the book.

            Dan Josefson’s reading was very interesting, he was very soft-spoken. He started out a little nervous but still was able to get the crowd into the story. The crowd was very attentive and was completing into the reading.

            The story started out at a boarding school for problem children. The most interested part was that one of the main characters was the narrator, and his story was just as interesting as the rest.  The head master as well as the teachers seems to also have their own problems. The story is very well written and the presenter was a great story teller.\

            Dan’s inspiration came from working in a boarding school. He was a very clean cut style for his 1^st novel. During his Q&A he had a very cheerful and confident demeanor. He happily answered every question, and had the crowd very focused on his every word.

This booking reading was my first and it won’t be my last. I feel that even though presenter was very shy at the beginning of the reading he really improved the more he read the story. His overall presentation was very good and the story was something I would recommend to my friends and family
