honeybees_library 's review for:
Manhattan Beach
by Jennifer Egan
Overall, I give this book 2 stars. Some parts were more interesting than others, however I would have just marked it DNF and moved onto another book if it weren’t a bookclub pick.
There were times I had a hard time focusing on what I was reading or even remembering what I had read in entire chapters, as it just came across boring. I did enjoy the parts focusing on Lydia (specifically when Anna and Dexter took her to Manhattan Beach), Anna’s diving, Anna’s relationship with Nell, and some of Anna’s interactions with Dexter. But overall, it just was not that interesting of a book to me.
