A review by kle105
Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides

1.0

I really wanted to like this book. I mean it won a Pulitzer for crying out loud but needless to say I couldn't even finish it. It was boring and drawn out. It was more so one of those books where you feel the author is trying to sound important rather than tell a story.

The subject matter was compelling enough for it to be interesting but it went on and on rather than moving forward. I felt myself saying enough already way too often while reading this book. Had this book been edited better I probably would have liked it better or even finished it. I am hoping it got better further into the story, but looking at how much was left and how it dragged I just couldn't finish.
