anahorish16 's review for:
A Spool of Blue Thread
by Anne Tyler
I don't doubt that Anne Tyler's a good writer and this is a masterclass in characterisation, but there is not much of a plot here and now that I've finished it I can't really say what the point of this story is. It's a bit like being in a train that seems to have travelled cross country only to find that it was an optical illusion or something and you were sitting in the same spot all along. I kept wanting to get some great revelation with regards to Denny, but nothing really happens. It's an atmospheric book, I'd say, and the characters are interesting, but that's about it.
