The Marriage Plot by Jeffrey Eugenides

Tuesday, June 26, 2012

This is the second book by this author that I have read and I loved the first book, so I had high hopes for this one. Oy! I somehow made it through the first 200 pages and then it (sort of) started to pick up. Most of the first half of the book is about all of these obscure novels the characters have to read while in college. I don’t think I had heard of any of them or the authors. Finally, FINALLY the story starts to happen during the second half of the book, but by then I didn’t really care.
