Okay, I finally finished this interminably long book.... I couldn't figure out quite why it felt so long, until Lena pointed out that it has 600 pages - it was deceptively thin for a book so long. Anyway, I actually did like it for the most part. It started kind of slow for me, but then it picked up, and I really liked the last 1/4 of the book. It's not a book I probably would have read on my own, but I guess that's the point of book club.... I liked a lot of the characters - particularly Trish, June, Rusty, Nestor, and Raymond (yes, I know he's an ostrich, but he still had character!) The main character was a big wuss, and although funny, he was so pathetic I couldn't really connect with him much, although his misadventures were entertaining. At least he somewhat redeemed himself at the end, thank goodness. I found the parts about the nuclear testing very interesting, and wished there was a bit more about that. (It's pretty horrifying - I'm kind of tempted to look up some of his sources and read more about this....) The book was well-written, with occasional moments of unexpected beauty, and I loved his hilarious and kooky descriptions of the characters - they make you feel like you can really see the situation exactly as described in your mind. However, despite this, something was missing for me, and I didn't realize what it was until I was finished, and started reading Matched - which I dove into like falling down a rabbit hole, and read the entire first half in one day. The Lonely Polygamist just never sucked me in - it always felt like I was just trying to get through it, rather than reading it because I really was engaged in it. And I agree with mother's final assessment: Maureen Sinkfoyle - seriously??!?
