![]() ![]() The other storylines didn't offer me anything interesting. The only interesting storyline, the one I thought was meant to be the focus of the book (We Need to Talk About Denny, basically), wound up being a background thing and was never resolved. This is why I need to write more again and flex my reviewing muscles, because I'm not saying what I mean to entirely, but I have to tell you I could not have been more bored by this book. It's about the most mundane of middle class families, trudging through the practicalities and problems of that life in the most matter-of-fact and predictable way. If I were a person who called things pedestrian, I would turn up my nose and sniff it about now. This was possibly among the most mundane books I've ever read- in the most insulting fashion I can possibly mean mundane. ![]() all? Because if so, I can cease to regret as of this moment not reading any of Anne Tyler's books before. ![]()
