sneadmichael 's review for:
Wolf in White Van
by John Darnielle
Sitting here hemming and hawing over the correct number of stars for this novel.
The four stars are for the many sections of the book that I found beautiful, or relatable--the connection the main character makes to both fictional worlds and to role-playing games as a way to escape from and/or cope with a frustrating real world, for example.
On the other hand, I nearly gave it three stars for either being too short to really do what it seemed to be trying to do, or for spending too much time on aspects of the story that never panned out.
So four stars it is, I guess. Four stars for the parts of this book that made me wish it was longer.
