Well, it definitely was the right genre this time. Family tension? Check. Complicated friendship? Check. Romantic element not the focus? Identity? Grief? Check. Check. Check.
My complaint with this one
is that there are so many characters that it’s hard to keep track –
dozens – and there are multiple actors voicing them, which does not make
any sense because it is written in third person.
I found the developing
adolescent sexuality issues kind of . . . creepy. The story itself is
sprawling. It spans decades and is circuitous. The main character was
not compelling enough for me to root for.
