I absolutely loved "Elsewhere" so it was a no brainer deciding to read Memoirs after I finished it. Unfortunately I was wrong.Â
I do my best to give a book a minimum of 50 pages before I completely give up on it. It's not that I expect every book to capture my undivided attention immediately but as an avid reader I must maintain a standard. I easily passed page 50 and continued and labored on hoping that somewhere along the way Naomi would dazzle me! I finally gave up on page 118.Â
There just wasn't that fluid way of words that I felt Ms. Zevin displayed in "Elsewhere". Please take a chance on this book because aside from my review she is a great author I just feel like this book wasn't for me. Hope this helps in aiding your decision to purchase :o)
