The Borrower by Rebecca Makkai

2.0

I gave this book a try, thinking because it dealt with a librarian and a precocious 10-year-old boy, it would have some kind of magic to it. Uuuuhh, no. I admit I skimmed through about 30% of it. Characters were mostly 1-dimensional and really frustrating. 1 1/2 starts, to be honest.
