kaylaalg 's review for:
Where'd You Go, Bernadette
by Maria Semple
The first half was an audiobook that I listened to in the car and the second half I flew through in e-book format.
What I enjoyed: I loved how a lot of the story was told using emails, documents, faxes, etc. I have never read a book like that before and it was really neat. The overall story was really good too. Humorous, fast-paced. I adored Bee and a lot of the secondary characters were awesome, including Audrey Griffin, even though she annoyed me most of the time. Bernadette was certainly interesting and by the end of the book, I had come to like her.
Why not more stars? That ending, ugh. It just left too many things unanswered. When I got to the end, I thought "Wait, what?!" ... I shouldn't have to think that at the end of a book! A bad ending will definitely downgrade a book's rating for me.
