State of Wonder

#706
Title: State of Wonder
Author: Ann Patchett
Publisher: HarperCollins
Year: 2011
353 pages
Audiobook.

 A somewhat silly premise and conclusion, though that's okay for this light fare. I don't buy for a minute that she'd leave Easter. Another 20 pages of agonized decision-making could have rescued this. and served the novel's need for Marina to have learned something about herself, her own choices, and moral relativism in order to moderate her contempt for Mr. Fox.
