anngdaniels 's review for:

The Inheritance of Loss by Kiran Desai
3.0

I'm not quite sure what I expected, but this sad and difficult book was not it. (You would think the title would have tipped me off ...) I am not entirely sure why I was disappointed - probably because there was so much hype in advance, including the Man Booker prize, and while I thought this was a good book, I did not think it was the best thing since sliced bread as the reviewers did. So maybe 3.5 stars?
