Eccentric Neighborhoods

One of the problems with creating a From the Stacks Challenge list based on the colors on your bookshelf is that you find yourself with books that you aren’t really sure you want to read. Like Eccentric Neighborhoods.
Every time I’d start to read a book from my challenge, I’d pick this one up and put it back down. I kept sliding it toward the bottom of the stack. I just didn’t feel like I wanted to read it.
When I got down to mostly books I wasn’t sure I really wanted to read, I picked this one up and started reading. And while I wouldn’t say I couldn’t put it down, I can say that I didn’t have any problems picking it up.
It was a much quicker, easier read than I expected. I liked all of the families and their stories. I wasn’t exactly sad when it ended but I wasn’t happy to be finished with it either. Not a bad book at all, I’m definitely glad I read it.
