### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    3 stars for the writing, 1.5 for plot and execution
  

*by S***E on Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2016*

I just finished this and am decidedly unsatisfied on many levels. Although I think the writing itself is decent enough in that the overall word usage and editing is professional, the story lacked too much. There seemed to be too much left unsaid or not described at all, the reader was just supposed to think "oh, so it's like this now?", I guess. I can't really give specific examples without plot spoiling. I think the idea was for a good story and it just got out of hand in the telling. The characters were not well fleshed out, I ended up really only caring for two of the supporting characters. The two main characters were really rather flat. I did not believe the romance part of this story one bit. I definitely did not like the idea of a 30-something woman falling "in love" with a fifteen year old boy, not matter how tall he was. I thought at first it was more like aunty or motherly love, which would have made more sense anyway with the rest of the story, though made it into a "love story" rather than a "romance". But no. And that creeped me out a bit. The morality of this "romance" was not even addressed until one or two lines at the end. There was just too much this book tried to do and failed at and could have been successful at and wasn't. I would not recommend this to anyone.

    Mixed feelings
  

*by C***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2018*

This is a difficult review to write, but then this was a difficult book to read, so I suppose it all evens out. Some reviewers have remarked on the age difference of the two main character. And how one bordered on being a pedophile. Although the relationship was never consummated, and no sexual thoughts were mentioned... there was still a creepy feeling throughout the entire book. The thought of "I'd keep my young child away from this woman, just in case she ever did cross the line", kept running through my head.  It was obvious there was something disturbing about her relationships in general, so her reasons for latching onto to this child were questionable, but not sexual, at least not blatantly so. And no overtures were ever made by her. Still be forewarned of the icky feeling it gives one and that the feeling will stay with you for a while afterwards... this is one book I wish I hadn't read.Three stars for the writing and cover.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    What a strange, haunting story...
  

*by J***K on Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2019*

This is the fictional story of a boy who grew up to be the tallest man in the world. It's also the story of a small town librarian in Cape Cod, our narrator, who tells the story of James and his too long, too short life. If you crave action in your reading you won't find much here but the story moves inexorably onward, like a sand dune across the desert.The Giant's House is clearly a romance but one between the unlikeliest of couples - the librarian and the giant - with a 15 year or so age difference between them. Yet it somehow works as a story line and is all the more tragic because of it.
