kellee 's review for:
This Must Be the Place
by Maggie O'Farrell
DID NOT FINISH
I read this on the recommendation from Modern Mrs. Darcy. The story is very raw and real (but a touch aspirational since one of the characters used to be someone famous). It’s one of those stories that’s not looking for a happy ending. It wasn’t great for me, I think, because this book was marketed to me as a light summer read, but it ended up being a bit heavier in tone (the book address the issues of family dynamics, addiction, and fame). I usually give books like this 3 stars; however, I really wasn’t a fan of the writing style. I usually enjoy stories told from multiple points of view, but they read like short stories, didn’t follow a particular timeline, and sometimes seemed unncessary to the plot. So it was an experiment that didn’t compel me.
