Felt kind of meh about this one to be honest. I thought Franny and Zooey was pretty interesting, but these novellas (Carpenters and Seymour) kinda dragged on for me. I enjoyed the character descriptions when the author was remembering Seymour, but some of it got pretty rambley and I had difficulty following or caring. I was surprised because I looked forward to reading Seymour more than Carpenters, but I actually enjoyed Carpenters more as it had a clear story line and some “shenanigans” due to the brother of the runaway groom being stuck in a car with the bride’s guests. I love some good shenanigans!

Overall, worth a read but not my favorite.
