Intermezzo

I like Rooney but I wouldn't call myself a super fan. After reading 3 of her works in quick succession, I think this one sticks out for its deep and complex discussion of grief, as well as its delightfully stream-of-consciousness narrative structure.
I wish it ended with more-to-be imagined; it wrapped up a little too neatly for my taste.
Though I liked the storyline well enough, I didn't find it compelling. It was fairly predictable which didn't drive me to pick it up and it took a while for me to get through it.
