msmichaela 's review for:
The Interestings
by Meg Wolitzer
Loved this absorbing novel about friends who meet at summer camp as teenagers and remain close into adulthood, through the birth of children, the death of parents, the strains of marriage and, perhaps most of all, the class/economic/social issues that arise when one friend becomes far more successful than the rest. Wolitzer's protagonist, Jules Jacobsen, is the archetypal outsider who's a perfect stand-in for the reader. The novel falters a bit toward the end, but I loved the characters so much that I didn't really mind.
