A review by wyll
Becoming by Glenn Rolfe

dark mysterious medium-paced

2.5

kind of difficult to get through; the narrative is really bogged down by unnecessary references to pop culture and today's technology. the beginning is too slow, and the majority of the characters are seemingly only defined by the abuse they either inflict or have suffered (all of which just feels... pointless). the only thing that really shines is that bret is a good dad, and he adds another star to my rating because he really was such a good father. i just don't get the motives of the lady of the lake..... maybe if there were more detail about why everything is really happening, i'd be more impressed
