gohawks 's review for:

The Borrower by Rebecca Makkai
3.0

Wasn't sure how this book would end, and I was very skeptical. I thought it was less plot and more an excuse to get the author's politics across - none of which I disagree with from what I can tell. But the literary references were fun and drew me to the book. Also the writing near the end redeemed this book. Good enough, but not great.
