Review title: My Two Cents.
Product review: I'm not a prolific reviewer and am late to reading books, but this novel was hard to put down. Many reviewers give a synopsis so I will spare you this. What do I like about this book? The characters. And as I read more and more Irving books it is evident that he is very good at creating relatable, but quirky, characters. At times he may be too verbose, but it is not as noticeable as other authors, and that says something about this skill. His writing, even when discovering tragedy, is warm. One criticism: he is too liberal with the parenthetical statements and semicolons. Vonnegut was a friend of his, but I bet Mr. Irving got more than a few razzings from Kurt about the semicolons. Anyway, I appreciate his humor. I highly recommend this book.
