I just finished On Beauty and loved it! I read White Teeth last year and was not captivated by it at all. All this buzz about Zadie Smith and I wasn't getting it. After reading On Beauty, I understand the buzz.

The story was complex but plausible and wonderfully told. Each character was fully thought out and communicated - even the minor characters has lots of definition. My only qualm with the book was that it ended when and where it did. I wasn't ready for it to end and I thought that the point at which it did was a bit ackward. However, the rest of the book was so fulfilling, I wasn't too bothered by it.

I want Chris to read White Teeth now and see how it compares to him. maybe I was just having a readding ADD week when I read it.

Anyways, good read and I think it would make for a great discussion here on LoT if others want to read it.
