Winning by Robin F. Brancato

selinamarcille's review

3.0

I bit underwhelming. I thought the subject matter was handled well, but the characters were very one dimensional. The only characters that had depth were Gary and Mrs. Treer. Diane seemed very eager and irritating. I also found the relationship between Mrs. Treer and Gary to be a bit awkward and uncomfortable. She was drinking shots with her high school students. It irritated me a bit. Granted, this was in the 1970s when the drinking age was lower, but I still found it odd.

The novel just sort of ended. No real conclusion, and that is something that I would have liked to read about.
