Sandra reviewed The Interestings by Meg Wolitzer
Review of 'The Interestings' on 'Goodreads'
2 stars
Not all that interesting. Mostly pretty ordinary in fact. I don't really understand why these people became friends and I certainly don't understand why they stayed friends all through the years. They really had nothing in common besides their beloved summer camp. And that's what, 2 months each year for 3 years. I spent way more time with high school friends and no, I haven't stayed friends with hardly any of them. I was not convinced of this great enduring friendship. I was told about it, yes, but what I was shown begged to differ.
Not a terrible story by any means, just ordinary life which, unless you happen to be living it, is not all that interesting to hear/read about.
