Surprising to me that this book won a Pulitzer Prize… maybe it just wasn’t my jam.

The book was consistent with the life of the protagonist; kind of boring. Finished it on the beach in Ogunquit. Yawn.

This book is a solid 3.5 to me, I want to see how this book reads once I'm older but I could still resonate with Less throughout. It's all about the fear of growing up and dealing with the past and the future, which I am known historically to EAT UP... This didn't disappoint! The writing was perfect for me, witty and engaging and leaving no stone unturned. I LOVED how everything circled back, no detail is unimportant. Overall, a very easy and quick read for me.

This was a fun read, well-crafted, with some thoughtful moments about growing older. But, I think I was expecting more from a Pulitzer-winning novel? Looking forward to talking about it at bookclub.
