Masterpiece  Excellent  Very good  Good  Just okay  Not for me  Definitely not for me  |
2006, 128 pp. Rating: This book has no words, just pictures, and the drawings are really beautiful. However, this is one where I might have wanted there to be captions, but I’m not sure. I loved the drawings, but I thought the way the animals were drawn was a little weird. Another graphic novel I wouldn’t have even looked at had it not been for the graphic novel challenge. Thanks again, Dewey!
It’s hard to review the book without giving spoilers away, but the book basically follows a difficult marriage. Or was it, really? Was it really much different than most marriages? Aren’t even “good” marriages difficult at times? These are the questions the book raises. This was a very readable book that I finished in a day, and I would have very much liked to discuss it with a group. I’ve read one other book by Anne Tyler, Saint Maybe (which I also liked), and I’ll be seeking out more. 2004, 306 pp. Rating: 4 |
