A review by topbob
The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Díaz

4.0

Great stuff, I think the most compelling aspect (and the most limiting part) was that it read like a short story collection with a similar cast of characters. Nonetheless, the book is remarkably solid throughout. Characters are endearing, story is captivating, interesting themes, and the book has some sharp humor to it. Yet, I feel like no aspect stood out in order to bring the novel to masterpiece status.
