Title: Not uncaptivating
Review: This is the second Paul Auster novel I have read. I bought this one because I so much enjoyed the first novel of his that I read -- The Music of Chance. Personally, I did not enjoy Moon Palace as much as the Music of Chance. However, I will say there is almost not a line in this book that I would have skipped. As I read the book, I was thinking...hmmm...this is not a terribly interesting story, but the writing is so good! Thus, I kept reading, and at the end, I was not unsatisfied. I have two other Paul Auster books waiting to be read...if nothing else, I have a feeling that I won't read anything "bad" by Paul Auster. It seems he works hard on his writing and unlike the apparent randomness in his stories, there's nothing random about his choice of words -- his writing is very impressive in my opinion.
Is the review positive or negative?
