The Giant's House by Elizabeth McCracken

1.0

I wanted so much to love this book. it is so well written. The author has a knack for metaphor and for weaving a background story that sucks a reader in. I will be looking up other titles by this author. Concerning the Giants House and the boy who grows too fast. I could not connect to the main characters even though I am a librarian. I could not relate to her despising humanity. I also could not get over the fact that she falls in love with the other main character when he is 11 and she is in her twenties. I understand they had the love of books that they shared with each other but I found it unpropable, unrelatable, and I had to put it in my pile to trade in.
