Book Review of The Magician's Assistant

The Magician's Assistant
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 4


I liked Bel Canto, but everything else I've read by Patchett (including this) has been disappointing. The early part of the book was pretty interesting, but as it went on, it was just weak and reminiscent of a million other family dramas. The ending was a little too neat and I found myself rolling my eyes.
