COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Quietly observant submitted by dicencal on August 29, 2016, 11:46pm The narrator in this novel is just the kind of person who is overlooked by everyone, but notices everything. It's a wonderful novel about a single woman's life in England.

formal, constricted submitted by 21621031390949 on July 1, 2017, 10:24pm It might have been my mood, but I just didn't care for this very understated, over-controlled book. When I realized I was almost halfway through and not enjoying it, I quit.
