Book Review of Middlesex

Middlesex
Middlesex
Author: Jeffrey Eugenides
Genre: Literature & Fiction
Book Type: Paperback
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 3


All of the reviews are correct. I was disappointed with the book but had high hopes because I like the Virgin Suicides, Jeffery Eugenides' first book. I was about 300 pages into the book (nearly 600 pages) and had to put it down...and I never put down a book due to my 'completion junkie' syndrome. This one, though, I had to quit and just deal with the guilt. It had potential with the story line being so unique, but the follow-through was highly disappointing.
