A review by cammmiam
Siracusa by Delia Ephron
3.0
Shallow and unlikable characters galore in this one. But the reader can not help but be sucked into their observations and motivations. In a nutshell, two couples, and probably one of the creepiest children if have ever read about, go on a joint vacation to Italy, only to unpack their emotional baggage full of lies, infidelity, and hatred upon each other.
The result is straightforward to encompass the expected (or at least what I expected). Yet at the same time there are some incredible quotes and motivations within to mull over. I think what will stick with me about this story is the ending, for it felt as if it could continue on forever and I would have lapped it up. Where do these characters go from here? What the heck is the deal with Snow? A psychologist could have a field-day with these characters, and even discussing them in a book club could be intriguing.
