A Book a Week – J

I read J because it was long listed for the Man Booker prize.

This was probably one of the toughest novels to get through for me. I read it over weeks and weeks. It felt like it was dragging on forever and I just couldn’t get through it.

I can’t even tell you what made the book so hard to finish or even read at all. And in the end, I am not sure I liked it. It was really depressing.

I’ve never read Jacobson before so I don’t know if this is typical for him but now I am not tempted to read more of him.
