I probably jumped into my second Ali Smith a bit too soon, but I found it on the shelves of the world-famous local farm when all my other books were boxed up for the move, so yeah.
The Accidental is a good book. Problem is, I'm not quite sure if it's more than that. The story is interesting, the characters intriguing, and their reactions during challenging times are the right kind of bonkers (as in, they make the reader want to read about them, not that I condone them!).
Yet, this book lacks something that I can't put my finger on. Or maybe it's just me getting annoyed at the story coming full circle in the final chapter.
