I thought the writing was particularly well done and I was definitely intrigued by Anna’s story.

Between that and the house, Kerry, I’m pretty excited. You will have to stop the site- you always have so much insight into a book!

I have no idea because usually any mention of religion is a trigger for you. 😉

(And, unrelated, I can’t wait to see what you guys get up to at the Socratic Salon!)

I honestly can’t say. I thought it was all right but I never felt attached to Anna and so was not greatly impacted by what happened. I say more in The Socratic Salon discussion if you want to stop by on Wednesday!

I finished it this weekend and am definitely in the minority in my feelings about the book, but really want to discuss it. Great first choice for the salon!

Intriguing lines for me: “She is being acted upon and therefore has no control over her actions or their consequences. This is just one of the ways in which Hausfrau is a novel that judges as much as it is judged.” Can’t wait to read it.

*I did – thought it brilliant. And clever*
