Prodigal Summer by Barbara Kingsolver

adventurous emotional inspiring reflective slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes

3.5

If not for the book club I was reading it for, I think I would have stopped halfway through. The descriptions of nature and the landscape were beautiful, but I didn’t really resonate or find any of the characters of their plot lines particularly meaningful. The ending for me was quite abrupt and I left the book feeling jilted.
