-




Kathleen Scribner | 2/17/2014
" I found this book depressing. "

-




Jessica M | 2/1/2014
" I think this might be added to my list of favorite books....excellent, excellent. Read it. If you want to know more, ask me. "

Pearlanne | 1/30/2014
" I thought this book was pretty amazing until I went back and read Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway, which was really amazing. "
-




Eric Cartier | 1/29/2014
" This won the Pulitzer Prize? It's fine, but not a revelatory text. I'd rather have read another Woolf novel instead. "
-




Jenn Burt | 1/22/2014
" This is not a happy book. If you want a happy book, do yourself a favor and don't read this one. That said, I love this book. I read it when it first came out and then again before I saw the movie. (The movie is decent, but I found the book so much better - as I usually do when it comes to book vs. movie comparisons!) It is deeply disturbing, intensely emotional, and beautifully written. Fantastic! "

" A bit gloomy but certainly worth the read. "
-




Phwade143 | 1/7/2014
" I loved this book and the movie. "
-




Ruth Fabiano | 1/6/2014
" Forgive me, but rather than be about repressed homosexuality, I took this as more of a polarization of society towards mental illness and depression. "
-




Serena Fontenoy | 1/6/2014
" It could have been the time in my life that I was reading this, but this book tore me apart and made me question everything I was doing. Great book to read, but thoroughly depressing. "
-




Tom Walsh | 12/14/2013
" Meandering and pretentious, but a good novel. Now, I suppose you're going to tell me, "That doesn't make any sense." "
-




Dana | 11/23/2013
" So wonderful! I couldn't put the book down, it was such an impeccably written character study! "
-




Rita Andres | 11/5/2013
" This book was a little depressing, but the relationship between the three women is very intriguing. This book is very well written with a very interesting format and a "surprise" that I somewhat expected in the end. It is a quick read and definitely not dull. "
-




Nancy | 8/27/2013
" The book was depressing although well-written. And I was intrigued by the format. All was resolved in the end and I did not realize the connections between the characters until the very end. "
-




Hermien | 5/25/2013
" Michael Cunningham has really captured Virgina Woolf's style in this book. It was a pleasure to read and a great companion piece to Mrs Dalloway. "
-




Candice | 5/1/2013
" You should read this while listening to the OST. Mind-blowing. It's so beautiful. "
-




Jomatthan | 2/25/2013
" What an utterly disturbing read! Beautiful prose for sure but not for the faint-hearted or low in spirit. "
-




Don | 1/4/2013
" Great modern look at one of the great books of the 20th Century, Mrs. Dalloway. "
-




Suzanne Tyrpak | 11/18/2012

-




Carmen | 8/25/2012
" Very interesting plot! Book is better than the movie. "
-




Whitney Oaks | 7/30/2012
" I borrowed this from my teacher when I was in High School. Interesting read, and much better than the movie. "
-




Corine | 5/20/2012
" I enjoyed this book very much. I saw the film before I read the book, and I'm glad the book is similar to the book. "
-




Rontab | 2/27/2012
" M. Cunnigham writes so well. I read it at a comfortable pace to feel the ups and downs (usually downs) of each character. Vivid, sad, nuanced. Loved it! The film was a very good adaptation too. "
-




Aleia | 11/28/2011
" Loved the style and artistry. "
-




Clint | 9/9/2011
" Slow - how did this win a pulitzer. It never grabbed me! "
-




RH Walters | 7/12/2011
" Gorgeous, with details that pull at you like the stones in Virginia Woolf's pockets. "
-




Bennett | 6/30/2011
" Damn son, why'd you read this?! "
-




Whitney | 5/16/2011
" I borrowed this from my teacher when I was in High School. Interesting read, and much better than the movie.
"
-




Robin | 5/13/2011
" While the arrangement of the three different stories wrapped together in this novel, I did not enjoy it. But it was short...
"
-




Chris | 5/6/2011
" This is one of those books the critics love but the audience hates because of its snobbery. Oh, and why is every character in the book gay? Just askin'?
"

Maria | 4/25/2011
" Destined to be one of my favorite books. Beautiful.
