Writers & Lovers

I was a little slow to get into this one but I ended up digging it! Really loved the insights about men feeling entitled to greatness. In some ways it's the kind of literary fiction about literary fiction that makes some people roll their eyes at literary fiction. But it's lovely on a sentence level and has interesting characters.

I will say that I thought it would appeal to me to read a book set in the Boston area but it started to feel almost...too set in the Boston area. Like why are you namedropping specific streets so often. It's fine.
