Juliet, Naked by Nick Hornby
3.75
emotional funny hopeful sad

This one is oddly hard to decide on. The characters were not particularly admirable and yet I liked them.  One of the most irksome characters had an unexpectedly heartfelt and insightful conversation.  I laughed out loud several times.  The ending was nebulous.  In the end, I think that everyone was trying to grow, and it was a snail-slow, oft-resisted, not very glamorous, and still hopeful process, which I can relate to.  If you watch the movie version, you will most likely want to listen to “Waterloo Sunset” by the Kinks, every day, maybe forever.  Or at least a whole lot of the time.
