ppkfs 's review for:

Pnin by Vladimir Nabokov
4.25
funny lighthearted reflective medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

It has all of Nabokov's beautiful prose on top of a charming main character and it's just really wholesome and quite enjoyable. It was a bit...I don't want to say boring or thin, but it's a book where nothing really happens but it does so in a charming way. So I rather liked it.

A book that was hard to read without a smile on your face, which is not something you'd expect from the author of Lolita.
