State of Wonder by Ann Patchett 353 pgs.
Always willing to read Ann Patchett but I think Kathleen really captured the problem in her post about Patron Saint of Liars. None of her other books can really compare with Bel Canto. This book is interesting and features strong women characters and then becomes so steeped in fertility and maternity when we make it to the Amazon and sneak a peak at the secretive research being done by scientists funded by a major drug company. There are secrets and interesting histories and the story is compelling.
I really enjoyed this book but it felt like a little bit of work to me.
