The Borrower
by Rebecca Makkai
Would recommend: Eh
This book was only okay. I thought the narrator was charming (if a little misguided), and the author clearly loves books and libraries, so, hooray! There were plenty of sharp, funny lines sprinkled throughout. But the plot was unsustainable, which I perceived from reading just the jacket copy. My mom recommended the book to me, so I read it, but ... yeah. The ending ruined it for me.
