A Gate at the Stairs by Lorrie Moore

3.0

You know when you're so excited to read a book, and it sits on the shelf for months because you're "saving it"? That's how I felt about A Gate at the Stairs. I have read other works by Moore and enjoyed them, so I had high hopes for this one. Unfortunately, I felt a little let down with this one until the final 50 pages. Parts of the book just pissed me off and I was so irritated by them. Overall, the quality of the writing was great, I just didn't love the story.
