Booth by Karen Joy Fowler
4.0
This isn’t a book that you read in one sitting-you have to spend time and ruminate over the different characters and their developments. Luckily so, I had a super busy week that forced me to do this and consequently I enjoyed the book much more than I first anticipated when starting.
Booth gives you an insider knowledge of the Booth family and thrives on character development rather than plot. Fowler does a great job writing on this subject without idolizing or giving attention to the person that first made “Booth” a name in the history books. I would recommend for readers that like slow builds and heavily historically-“facted” fiction.
