Title: Hopeful but disappointed
Review: I had high hopes for this book based on the fact that it won the Pulitzer Prize. Unfortunately, I found a tedious unbelievable story about two boring characters that really had nothing important to say for 324 pages. I read the whole thing hoping something interesting would happen. Instead, as the book progressed I found myself rolling my eyes and wishing for the end. Maggie is a meddler that ruins peoples lives and Ira is a loser that can't control his passive aggressive behavior to bring others down to his level of misery. There is nothing poignant in their lives that even remotely hopes to bring tears to your eyes or make you laugh out loud. This book ranks up there with The Pilots Wife - a book that has nothing to say and is a shameful waste of time.
