A review by gl_mrtnl
Housekeeping by Marilynne Robinson

3.0

I really wish I understood this book better, but I really didn't. I struggled to get through the descriptive bits (90% of it) and desperately wanted more of the eventful episodes. I suffered through the lack of action and found every outdoor adventure described extremely boring. I enjoyed the action when there was some, but I didn't understand the end and found it confusing.
Overall I give it a tentative 3 stars because I didn't hate or dislike it.
