Book Reviews of Everything Must Go
Book Review: A Long, Difficult Read
Summary: 2 Stars
I really tried to like this book; the concept is certainly intriguing. However, as other reviewers have pointed out, the narrative is completely bogged down by the minutia of Henry's life. The reader has to slog though long passages of the most boring narratives -- Henry choosing his wardrobe, Henry remembering his Tupperware containers in his work locker, Henry trying to decide what kind of salsa to bring to a friend's house, Henry making mental notes to replace the worn oven mitts. There were also aspects of this book that were completly unexplored -- Henry's mother is clearly and severly mentally ill; why did the family never get help for her, but rather let her wither away for years and years?
All in all, I was not all that impressed. Based on other reviews, I will read "Emma and Me," and give this author another chance.
