It's a 3.5? This book was strange for me. Franny was so outside of anyone I could imagine, and the events were so improbable I had a hard time with it. I appreciated the diverse characters, but at the same time they seemed there as a backdrop to a white woman's plight. It was still engrossing, but it felt like a book I would have appreciated more as a college student and had more drama in my gut. The audiobook narrator does a pretty darn good job with all of the accents and brings the story alive with her acting, so there's that. And as a content note, I found it very difficult to get through certain parts as the mother to a son and daughter. 

But also, what the heck did I just read? Did anyone grow? Did anyone learn anything? What was real?
