A Visit from the Goon Squad by Jennifer Egan

5.0

i can see the two sides of responses to this book, yes in some ways it is a little proud of its own creative intelligence in weaving a magnitude of plotlines together. but, in everyway, it deserves to be. creating a gripping, entertaining book which shifts protagonist every chapter is a hard feat, and doing it with successful and beautiful style changes is even more so. this novel 100% deserves the praise it's received, i was both entertained and inspired and loved egan's style and character creation.
