A review by jheher
The Elegance of the Hedgehog by Muriel Barbery

4.0

Initially I was sure I would have to enforce my 100-page rule; if after 100 pages I'm not enjoying the book it gets set aside. The main characters seemed self-centered and irritating in many different ways. But, right about the time I was ready to set the book down things started to change. The main characters start to grow in way I did not anticipate and by the end I was sad that the story had come to a conclusion.
