A review by spellvexit7
Jitterbug Perfume by Tom Robbins

Did not finish book. Stopped at 47%.

There was a lot to like about this book: the writing was witty and playful, the settings were varied, the plotting was unconventional, and beets were prominently featured.  But about halfway through the book my interest was truly waning; it simply seemed to be meandering too much.  While I initially liked Alobar and Kudra, their dynamic grew a bit tiresome and their narrative seemed to crowd out the other characters.  I'm sure the threads were unified at or near the end, but with so many good books to read and with such a backlog, I simply moved on.
