A review by kate_elizabeth
The Age of Reinvention by Karine Tuil

3.0

I'm into Karine Tuil's writing style - a little frantic, a little breathless - and I LOVE the footnotes she includes, creating backstory for characters who drift in and out of the pages (because how many times do you read a book and never think about those people?). That said, while this book held my attention the entire way through, it got a little meandering at the end. I appreciate the central triangle, people pulled together and apart, but my overriding thought when I finished it was that ultimately I didn't care too much what happened to any of the three main characters. They're all kind of awful people, and when it was time to turn away from their stories, I wasn't sad to say goodbye to them.
