The Virgin Suicides

Stars 5/5
The Virgin Suicides by Jeffrey Eugenides

I have been wanting to read this book for such a long time now and finally I did! I really enjoyed this dark recounting of the lives of the Lisbon sisters and their untimely deaths as told by the boys in the neighborhood that were in love them. The story is set twenty years later, as the boys, now men, gather together to share their memories of the family that shocked the whole community. This book is definitely not for the faint of heart but I highly recommend it.
