The Goldfinch - Donna Tartt
Massive tome to get through, but I thoroughly enjoyed it.
What I loved about it, was the characters which really sprang out from the pages
Theo, the narrator of the story, seemed rather weak, but I loved his chum Boris, gentle antique restorer, Hobie, and Theo's childhood friend, Andy. Plus there was a whole host of sharply drawn characters that came to life.
I wasn't really interested in antiques/art, of which I did skim along. but it was a thrilling, sad, harrowing but uplifting read.
