A review by elizanne24
Babbit by Sinclair Lewis

3.0

I liked this book, but didn't love it.

Watching Babbit vacillate between different desires and motivations for 400 pages was interesting and amusing. Yep, it was sarcastic, like all the reviews said. The moments where Babbit self-reflects are funny, but also few and far between. He's definitely a bit of a bumbler, stumbling between whatever he finds popular at the moment. I was satisfied though, with his lack of real character development.
