lenny3 's review for:

The Astonishing Color of After by Emily X.R. Pan
3.0

I am not sure if I over hyped myself on this, or if I just took too long to finish it, but this just wasn't for me.
I think maybe magical realism just isn't my jam.
The premise and writing were beautiful, however I think I could have been happy with a good 150 pages less - it took me two weeks to finish and I just never found that visceral connection to any character that I need to be able to fall in love with a book.
