The Dinner by Herman KochMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Although this book was slow to start, once you found out what the issue involving both families was, it was quite shocking. This book kind of looks at todays society and I could definitely see young teens/adults par-taking in the activities that happened in this book. There was a lot of negative feelings divulged from the book, ie. anger, rage, frustration, insecurity, paranoia. It gave an interesting view of what 'blind rage' might entail and seem like. The book was bizarre, I will say that. On the other hand, it gave gritty descriptions that I just was not expecting, which is something I love. My suggestion is you would have to read the book to get what I mean because my description isn't doing it justice. The only reason I am giving it a 4 stars is because the beginning was quite slow but in all honesty the book deserves a 4.5 because once you get past a certain point you can't put the book down.
