I am interested in this so I appreciate your as ever, well-balanced views on what worked and what didn't, Karen, a fair and insightful review. ♥️
A terrific review, Karen. I loved your background as to why this may not be the book that we have come to expect from Richard Russo. Alas, you are not alone in that. But I will be anxious to read this soon.
Another great review, Karen. I'm not eager to read the book, but your writing makes it interesting anyway.
Excellent review, Karen! Sorry this one didn’t work. It is not easy for some to write a shorter novel. I think it takes a special talent to write novellas and short stories. To knock it out of the park in 200 pages or less is quite the accomplishment.
Fair and beautiful review Karen. I love how clearly you explained both the positives and what didn't fully work for this one. This is such a helpful review, thank you!
Thanks for an honest review Karen. I was hesitant at first but now know it’s a pass for me. I’ll try one of his older novels.
Great review Karen 😊
I saw an interview with him, and he said that this novel had many elements that was pure his life experiences growing up. Not a memoir, but the town itself.
