brendamn 's review for:

Everything Is Illuminated by Jonathan Safran Foer
4.0

The narrative being split in 3 was a little confusing at first, but once I finally found the rhythm I could finally engage myself in the book. It was actually fun to discover the characters' personal history along with them throughout the book, but bittersweet once I finally realized where it had all inevitably lead to. The book was a very solid read, and through becoming familiar with all the characters as the book progressed made the ending that much more intense.
