I‘ve been working through this as i‘ve had time. I might have finally gotten to the point of enjoying it. The first 150 pages were not all that fun.

My second time reading this book and my 4⭐️ rating holds. I usually stay away from novels about infidelity but this one is well written, and it digs deeper on a crumbling marriage and a family going through a divorce. It‘s another NYRB Classics gem I‘d add to my recommendation list.
Book 6 for #TenBeforeTheEnd and another one I‘ve had on my shelf for at least a decade. It was interesting and a creative merging of two timelines and some magical realism, but I didn‘t love it. I realized this is by the author of a new book, which I do still want to read - The Most.
Wonderful insights into the limits and value of marriage and friendship.
3⭐. A collection of short stories in the backwoods of Appalachia. I'm unsure if I will read more of the author. After some stories I thought I might; after other stories I said I wouldn't.
