A review by emilyjoy828
The Book Borrower by Alice Mattison

1.0

1.5 stars. What was this story about, you may ask? Who knows. The author is actually a very good writer, so I hope her other books are a bit more exciting/have more of a plot. I just didn’t like the story or the characters or the way the author described everything (sculptures, old women, driving, fire hydrants!) in a sexual way. Also, what do people have against quotation marks? Use them! Trust me, they are great. It’s like this magic symbol that lets your reader know when someone is talking. Pretty revolutionary.
