The Interesting's. YOU HAVE TO READ THIS! This is such a RARE TREAT of human beauty in ALL of its forms. This is one of the best written and told stories I have read in such a long time. I laughed, cried, related to, and found myself utterly immersed. ENJOY!!!!!

Uninteresting. This book is underwhelming. I never warmed to any of the characters, especially Jules. Seemed overwritten at times. Just not a compelling read.

Interesting. I loved it! The reading isn't easy sometimes, but it's worth it. I recommend it!

UNinteresting. The book started off ok but by about half way I began to realize I was totally uninterested in the story and characters. I had kept reading for a while thinking that it would get better/interesting but it didn't and I decided I would rather not waste any more of my time reading it. There are so many better books in the world to read. Why waste any more of my time on this one?

Not very interesting. I don't know why this novel received critical acclaim. The characters are unlikeable and frankly not as interesting as they, or the author, seem to think they are. It's like being stuck at a dinner party with a bunch of conceited people who drone on and on about themselves. A good beginning, and a few good subplots, but the ending was bad and overall the book is unsatisfying.

Brilliant characterizations. Excellent writing, very engaging.

Very UNinteresting. This book was highly recommended to me by a literary buff neighbor. I found it so boring that I was skimming through it parts of it, which I rarely do. The main character Jules was very unlikeable and the ending was mundane. I kept making a joke about the title of the book as I forced myself to finish the last chapter. I live in NYC, which may have dulled my interest because most of the storyline is based there. I'm now reading "The Yonahlosse Riding Camp for Girls" and love it!

Worlitzer is one of my all time favorites. She’s got such a keen and vast understanding about the battle of the sexes and how each innately typically respond or react to each other and her characters are so complexly themselves and no matter what idiosyncrasies or quirks they’ve got they all are universally understood as a HUMAN who’s imperfect yet has a deeply immersed themselves and redeem themselves via readers eye

Complete. Finally a story that felt visceral, real and in a way an American story. It touched me as if I knew the characters as they were both generic yet unique, as we all are.

Generous and true. I never write positive reviews for books because they always leave me in some state of disappointment. This is stunning portrait of what it means to love: is selfish, is unkind and basically what you make of it. What I can say about it is this: I am changed after reading it.

Mostly wonderful. I really liked the characters, especially Jules and Ethan. The ending and the final section, though, seem contrived somewhat, hence the less-than-stellar ranking. But on the plus side, this was a captivating read for most of the book, and the writing was terrific. All in all I'm very glad I read it, and overall thoroughly enjoyed it.

Eh, Just OK. Bad ending... Just sort of stopped the story. I didn't realize the ending was the end of the book, until I turned the page. Well written, though, and some parts of the story are quite intriguing.

For us. This sweet, relevant heartwarming story is for all of us who were teens in the 70's. Then again, it's also about friendship and relationships and the meaning of success. The Interestings is a read that will be with me for a very long time.

The uninterestings. Characters are insufferable, self-absorbed, privileged... Could not warm to any of these "uninterestings"

The Interestings. Excellent, warm, and funny.

Most satisfying novel I have read in years. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. While I was never a camp kid, I felt very drawn in by each character's story. I was curiously grateful for the honesty on which situations were experienced, resolved, unresolved, expressed, etc. The frankness of the writing ensnared my attention and affected me which I think is quite an accomplishment.

The 'Uninterestings'. Disappointed with this long, rambling, disjointed tale of summer camp, the rich, and the envious. Unconvincing and mostly plodding, a tedious story of pretty unremarkable individuals.

The interestings. The interestings weren't that interesting
