A review by lefeufollet
Parakeet by Marie-Helene Bertino

3.0

Rounding up from what my initial rating would have been, because I feel I became less forgiving of the aspects of the book I didn't like after I read a line that the author lifted directly from No Country for Old Men. (I understand that this happens, since, as a reader, I am guilty of adopting favorite phrases; however, I am not a writer profiting off of others' clever remarks.)
