2008 book 10

Jeffrey Eugenides' The Virgin Suicides
Discussing Middlesex at book group yesterday made me wanted to reread this novel --it's funny, I remembered really liking it, but dang is it moving! Few writers can pull off the collective/1st person plural narrative (2007's Then We Came to the End is another that did it well) but Eugenides uses it to great effect here.
