[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just finished Tom Lake. I thought it was slow. And I’m not a person who needs an overly plot-driven, well, plot. But somehow stuff both happened and didn’t happen in that book? It was well-written and I liked a lot of the author’s language and how everything is slowly revealed over time. But still. In the end it was like (vague spoilers) “oh we got married somehow and xxx died in a yacht accident ain’t that crazy, anyway back to the farm!”[/quote] Agreed. This is somewhat similar to Commonwealth. A lot of words and things happen and yet not much happens. I felt the same way about The Most Fun We Ever Had. Very long book, and yet still somehow very light on plot or actual development. Of the three I liked Tom Lake the best though, but that's possibly because I listened to the audiobook and it was done by Meryl Streep.[/quote]
