When good books go bad

The Soul Thief
Charles Baxter

I'm pleased to report that another review's up over at Pajiba, this time on Charles Baxter's Soul Thief. You can read my review here.

In a nutshell: Adequate...but coulda been so much better.

Bibliolatry Scale: 3.5 out of 6 stars

Books with a lot of promise that don't life up to it actually frustrate me far more than just plain cruddy books.

I haven't read this yet, but Saul and Patsy was such a disappointment after Feast of Love. Sorry this one might be, too. I guess he set the bar a little too high!
