Search - Skylight Confessions

Initially didn't think this was a book that I would enjoy; however, I was not ready for it to end. Hoffman pulls you into a complex world of family and relationships. Writing is concise and very enjoyable!

Skylight Confessions follows several people within a damaged family. Hoffman uses a lot of symbolism and elaborate prose to relay the tale of Arlyn and her offspring. There are surprises amid the story, but I felt the entire book read like a complex literary assignment....I couldn't spend as much time enjoying the story because I was busy trying to sort out all of he symbolism. Still, entertaining enough and a quick read.

I usually love Alice Hoffman's writing but for some reason this book just didnt hold my interest. It just didnt ever seem to engage me.

Another wonderfually twisted book from Alice Hoffman. Loved the idea of the house in this book. Good read.
