Becky’s Reviews > The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao > Status Update

I liked the references to Lord of the Rings and other books, but was disappointed at how little the book actually was about Oscar. I also found the graphic and misogynistic sex scenes to be offensive. Maybe I'm becoming prudish in my old age, but I hate the wham bam and beat you silly mam narratives and don't enjoy reading them, so I give this book an iver all thumbs down.
