A review by ashmagoffin
Bel Canto by Ann Patchett

3.5

I feel like the worst thing this book had going for it was just the fact that I had read it after her latest three releases. This is a great book, it achieves a lot of emotional impact for something that moves at a reasonable pace. I did feel less connected to the characters in Bel Canto than her other books, probably due to the sheer number of them. This is my least favourite Patchett book but that is un unfair criticism of my part as if I had read this book before the rest I would have a higher opinion of it.
