A Prayer For Owen Meany

A Prayer For Owen Meany is a novel I DNFed years ago. After some not so fortunate kindle purchases I decided to give it another try, and I'm glad I did. The strangest thing is that this novel made me laugh more than it made me cry (apparently this is a tear jerker for a lot of readers, one of the reasons why I chose it) I just loved the humour and I was reluctant to put it down some of the time. However this is not a novel that I connected with. I like it and admire the wonderful prose and political and religious insights but didn't really love it. I will not hesitate in recommending it though.
