intermittent book review post

After Claude by Iris Owens. Really dark and really funny. Unreliable narrator with full-blown Narcissistic Personality Disorder which does not prevent her from being really sharp about everything except herself. Early 1970s New York setting, bonus for the last section of the book being set at the Chelsea Hotel.

I too loved State of Wonder and had the same kind of back and forth. I do think it was a little tongue in cheek.

I still think you'd love The Night Circus. It's the kind of book Peter Lake would read.
