A review by littlelady_28
Nobody's Fool by Richard Russo

4.0

Even though this book started out slowly, it was worth it to keep going through it. The novel followed the lives of people living in a small town in New England, mostly focusing on Sully, a man who always seems to make bad decisions. Deep down, though, he is a good guy who just has a lot of relationship issues, not unlike most people. These issues are explored throughout the book, as he deals with an aging landlady, his best friend, and his son, among others. The characters are flawed, but realistically so and could easily have been neighbors to anyone across America. Though rather slow-paced, it was definitely a book worth reading. I give it a B-.
