A review by nclcaitlin
Small Hours by Bobby Palmer
2.75
There’s a talking fox. That’s all you need to know.
Jack is must return home and face what he’s been suppressing when his mother disappears with no explanation. There, he must face his estranged father, disappointed sister, and his disappointment in his career.
This is a story of a family in crisis and the ghosts of the past who still haunt them, of life-changing conversations in the early hours of the morning, and of understanding, compassion, and love.
Sadly, I found this too boring. I kept waiting for something to happen, yet this was more of a melancholic read. As I didn’t connect to the characters, I didn’t find it heartening or overly saddening. I think I’m just not a contemporary fiction reader that’s more in this vein.
