I read, Lowland for another book club. And yes, I listened to this one, too. What can I say, I am on a roll.
I didn’t like the reader for this at first, but maybe cause I loved the one for Elizabeth Gilbert’s so much that I had a hard time switching gears. Nonetheless, I got into it pretty quickly and thanks to a day filled with art, I finished this one in a weekend.
However. I am not sure I liked it.
I normally love Jhumpa Lahiri. I was actually the person who recommended this to book club but even though I like so many of her books, I was “meh” about this one.
If you’ve never read her, I’d say start with one of the other ones first.
I too have this one on my iPod but haven’t got but 10 minutes into it. I love all of her other books and I hope that when I persevere that I will fall in love with this one too.
