A Visit from the Goon Squad by Jennifer Egan
reflective
slow-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? Character
Honestly, I just didn’t get it. I anticipated it being much more directly about music; it’s been recommended for fans of Daisy Jones and the Six, but I found little in common between the two books. I felt like I was never really grounded in the story, and I knew there were pieces coming together, but I kept forgetting who certain characters were or getting lost in time. I just found it all too opaque. I mean, it won a Pulitzer, so I think I’m just not the right reader for this.
