wslockard 's review for:
The Invisible Circus
by Jennifer Egan
Unbalanced! First half of the book is full of pity. Second half is full of sensuality. I was back and forth between feeling annoyed and not being able to put this book down. So the average of my emotions is 3 stars.
Captures adolescence well, in the varying extremes.
The second half begins with a completely unlikely encounter. No way the protagonist would find THE person with the answers with such ease. But yeah, here he is, and oh also, he's incredibly attractive, and okay, here's a lot of sex.
The indulgence totally surprised me. I have read Goon Squad and I became accustomed to Egan withholding pleasure from her characters. Not so here.
