February Book Club Selection

The book delves into the complexities faced by Jean, who is biracial, adding a unique layer to her experiences. However, the main plot revolves around Patrick, a former athlete turned sportscaster, who wins $75 million in the lottery. This sudden wealth impacts his relationship with Jean and his adjustment to his new lifestyle.

While the premise was intriguing, I found myself almost giving up on the book due to the writing style. The lack of communication between the lead characters was frustrating, and at times, I struggled to connect with the story.

Overall, “Winner Takes All” explores themes of wealth, relationships, and identity, but falls short in execution.

boring

cant finish this. its the narrative. its the speed of the book. its the unrealistic interactions between the main leads. just awful slow and so very boring
