The Corrections by Jonathan Franzen
3.0

About: A dysfunctional family whose lives are all swirling out of control.

Why I picked it: I was in the mood for something a little more serious and I hadn't yet read anything by Franzen, which was kind of unacceptable considering what industry I'm in.

Thoughts: So now I have confirmed for myself that Franzen is a master of words and creating characters. However, some of those characters were a lot more interesting to me than other, and I did find a few bit boring.

3.5 stars
