A review by lovelyday2day
Tom Lake by Ann Patchett

This really picks up in the second half. Not my favorite of Patchett’s novels but very good. I do take issue with the main character removing the u from Laura to go by Lara. I liked the exploration of self and family and what and how she chose to share with others.

“Funnily enough, this turned out to be the thing that saved me: the knowledge that I could get back to myself.”
