Title: The Borrower Author: Rebecca Makkai Genre: Adult Fiction Rating: 3 |
An OK read. It was pretty far-fetched (an inadvertent kidnapping?) and the main character didn't have much common sense (an inadvertent kidnapping!) which got fairly annoying after a while. And it was kind of irritating how stereotyped the librarians in the novel seemed to be (maybe that is just because I work in a library myself). However, there were some redeeming elements which made me continue reading like the occasional literary humor and issues dealing with gays. I'm glad I read it, but I would definitely not re-read it.
