catladymcgee 's review for:
Juliet, Naked
by Nick Hornby
I always love the complicated emotional conundrums presented by Nick Hornby, and his characters always appeal to me in that messed-up-yet-redeemable-in-an-unusual-way aspect.
While I wouldn't rank this up there with his best work (About a Boy, obviously), I did find it enjoyable and intriguing. While I reveal that I am in the lower literary realm by admitting this, I would've liked a little more closure on the book. I'm like that. I like my stories wrapped up neatly, or otherwise COMPLETELY enigmatically. This ending didn't strike that right balance with me.
Otherwise, I enjoyed the book from its beginning to its end, and I'll continue being a Hornby fan. (Also, I really hope this is turned into a move, and I want Hugh Grant as Tucker. That's just a given. Please make this happen, cinema gods!)
