[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Meg Wolitzer's "The Interestings." I didn't find any of them the least bit interesting, Most of Curtis Sittenfeld's stuff. She's a good writer, but her female characters are all so passive. It makes me wonder if a lot of women are passive, since I'm not, at all.[/quote] I really liked American Wife, though I found it almost creepily intrusive re: Laura Bush. I hated Prep. I thought the protagonist was self-loathing and pathetic, and I really didn't get where that was supposed to come from. The Man of My Dreams was stupid, and Sisterland was fine except for the obvious thing with Hank, which again was just dumb.[/quote]
