rcwa234 's review for:

Ethan Frome by Edith Wharton
4.0

3.5 rounded up. I was wanting to read a “classic” I knew nothing about, and my brother finished this one at school so I picked it up. It’s a quick, easy read. I’d like to look in to some of the theories about what everything is supposed to mean, but I have my ideas. My biggest complaint is the weird way the last chapter is written. The rest of the book has a pretty clear definition between the present and the past, and that just goes away in the last chapter. That might have some meaning but it kind of just confused me. I also didn’t like any of the characters, which makes a book difficult to enjoy for me. The ending was ridiculous but that was probably the point.
