Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides

I had to force myself to finish this book. I am not sure what all of the hype is about as it was a bit boring for me. It started out okay...but then dragged.

The subject matter didn’t bother me, what bothered me is that the author didn’t even get to the subject matter until the last 3rd of the book. I just kept reading thinking it was going to get better and it didn’t.

With so many great books out there I can’t in good conscience recommend this book to anyone.

All I can say is 1 down 11 to go!
