A review by azure_blue
The Virgin Suicides by Jeffrey Eugenides

2.0

Is it 1 star is it 2 stars? I don’t know.
Just like i know nothing about this book and nothing about the girls.
The only thing that happened in the whole book is that the girls kill themselves. But let me tell you, the narrator “we” is creepy, that’s it. And I really liked Cecilia, i don’t know if that’s creepy or not but that character is the only good thing in the book. She needs more credit, she was the only actually mystery that i would love to unravel.
Long story short; a bunch of nothing, what you read in the first two pages is the conclusion of the whole book.
You want to know why they killed themselves? You wouldn’t know, no one does and no one will.
I feel I am missing something, a lot of readers liked this… why? Where? What was so interesting about this book that made it so good? I get it, the vibes, but what else?
I’ve been searching the reviews for the past two hours for an excuse to open my blind eyes to why this book is amazing, and I couldn’t really find any.
Please please please, if you read this and you loved/liked it, please give me a reason to because i really wanted to love this.
And for those who haven’t read it, I guess it’s either you’ll love it or kinda hate it.

+ i don’t know why I pushed the spoiler button tho, we all know what happened by reading the title.
