I love my wife. She's superb. But she likes to read books that I wouldn't normally read. She started this new crime/law fiction book. I think it was written by a Christian which should make it that much more of an incredible read. :) But on the inside dust jacket one of the endorsements by another author said, "This book is excellent. It's fiction that reads like fact." I thought the point of fiction was to not sound like fact. I thought the point of fiction was to be just that . . . fiction. To take you away to another place. To create a world and characters that are beyond us. I don't know. Fiction as fact. I guess Lewis and Tolkien and Rowling and all the great fiction writers were going for fact when they wrote their stories.
