Unaccustomed Earth by Jhumpa Lahiri

Finally finished!!! This led to a reading slump...so, not a great sign.
It was okay...
Written well. Characters complex and fully formed...but not likable.
Depressing. So if you want to be depressed, this is the book for you!! Not a happy story in the bunch!
Some stories more interesting than others. Nothing happens in some of them. A statement on reality I suppose. But I dont care, I read to escape...and this wasn't it.
Not terrible, just boring. Realism has never been for me. I'm sure it'll stick with me for a while...but no re-read in the future.
Ps the ending was just wrong.
