book review:  Whistler

book review: Whistler

*SPOILER FREE REVIEW

Am I a professional when it comes to reviewing books?  Nope.  But I can tell you if I loved it, it was just okay, or (if given the chance) I would unread a book. No stars and no recaps.

This book reminded me that I really need to go back and read every one of Ann Patchett's works.  Do I have time for that with my ever growing TBR pile?  Perhaps I can work one in every month.

This is a heartfelt story of relationships, bonds and much more. This novel falls firmly into the category of loved it.  I listened to it on audio (narrated by Ann Patchett herself) but would like to go back and read the book so I can enjoy it in a new light.  

Her characters are endearing and feel authentic.  She is a master of storytelling.  I'm definitely keen to fall under the spell of Patchett again.  Off to add Bel Canto to my Libby holds.
