Here I Am: A Novel | Jonathan Safran Foer
Mehso-so

Disappointing, considering how wonderful #EverythingIsIlluminated and #ExtremelyLoudAndIncrediblyClose were. I found a lot of parallels to my own life in Here I Am, but at it's heart this book felt far more cynical than Foer's previous works. This removed me from the characters and left me without anyone to root for. Perhaps that was intentional, but it kept me from being invested.

AndjoSant I‘m feeling this way after reading the first 100 pages, but I‘ll persevere 7y

In troubled time like this, books is the only safe place I know. Anyway, I just finished with this book. The story is good and deep, but the way it was written is an itsy bitsy hard to understand (for me 😁). Oh and I just found out that there's already a movie adaptation of this book from 2005 and Jonathan's character is played by Frodo 😜 time to check out the movie I guess 😎 #jonathansafranfoer #everythingisilluminated
