A review by misscharlied
Giant by Edna Ferber

4.0

3.5 stars. The last half I couldn't put it down, although the beginning feels disjointed, starting at the end then going back to the beginning. I wonder why the author decided to structure it that way. Maybe if you started with Bick's trip to "ole Virginny" it reads flat? It reminds me of that Elton John song that was so boring, then they added the live audience track in the background and it was a hit. One little switcharoo changes the whole feel of it.
