Even when the book was meandering I was still enjoying it. <br /><br />Andi - I read Babbitt last year and then visited his childhood home in Minnesota. I really want to read Main Street. <br /><br />bkclubcare - Apparently one of the band members suggested that as a name and the other members thought he meant Arrowsmith, the book they'd all had to read in high school.

I liked the part I read (famous last words), I like the sounds of this one, but the faulty ending would definitely bug me.

But I liked reading about Martin growing as human and doctor, and also his relationship was quite interesting to read about. Rivhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04561804353287763337noreply@blogger.com
