gabberjaws 's review for:
The Virgin Suicides
by Jeffrey Eugenides
I genuinely don't see what all the fuss is about.
In the beginning, I guess I could see it. The start, with Cecelia's death and all, was interesting. I found myself intrigued, uneasy, and a little bit sad. But the book quickly lost steam, it started droning on and on - and I was wishing it would get to the point. This whole thing was masturbatory with a side serving of dull. It wasn't about the girls at all, and I think it should have been. Because the way it was told, their deaths meant nothing. I kinda wanted something to matter here.
