A review by jessdekkerreads
Long Island by Colm Tóibín

Did not finish book. Stopped at 21%.

I loved Brooklyn. And Brooklyn also happens to be one of my favorite films. So I was eager to read this sequel, however, I think we could’ve ended with Brooklyn and been happy. I don’t think we needed this sequel, and now I’m left with a bad taste in my mouth with regard to the character of Tony. I’ll certainly pick up The Magician, but I can’t force myself to finish Long Island. I’ll go wash these 68 pages from my brain with a rewatch of the film adaptation of Brooklyn instead.
