The Impossible Lives of Greta Wells by Andrew Sean Greer
2.0
This is a terrible book. The premise is nonsensical... I say this as someone who thoroughly enjoys fantasy. But I can't get behind a plot that revolves around the impossible and doesn't explain the how or why.
Aside from the ridiculousness, it's also a terrible plot. Boring story line with a lackluster (and unsurprising) ending.
The *only* reason this gets two stars instead of one... there were more than a few really excellent lines in this book that made me go back and thing, "Yeah. You totally captured that feeling/opinion/something that makes my heart quiken."
But... there are other books that do that and don't suck.
