Book Review: Where’d You Go, Bernadette by Maria Semple

This book was a very quick read, especially compared to the Kingsolver novel I picked up two weeks ago and am still slogging through. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I picked up a copy at a garage sale for $1 and I’d heard some good buzz about it, so I went in without even reading the description on the back.

I could not put this book down. Seriously, I started reading it one night when I was having trouble falling asleep, and I read several hours into the night until I inevitably had to get some sleep for the coming day. I finished it the next day.
