The Wilderness by Ann Flournoy took me far more time to read than it should have. The story was interesting, but it didn't "grab" me. That left me reading only a few pages at a time and then putting it aside--over and over again. It's the story of a group of friends as they go through college and then through life and sometime living near each other and sometimes across the country from each other. It tells the ups and downs in their lives and their relationships (among each other and with others including the changes in them over time). It also covers the changes in society over time with the end of the novel set in 2027 when one of them dies during societal upheaval taking place in the US under a President who is determined to control life with force. I gave the book 3 1/2 stars out of 5.
