A review by esmewasreading
Imagining Elsewhere by Sara Hosey
Did not finish book. Stopped at 5%.
So I got the audiobook from Netgalley in exchange for a honest review.
The concept for this is great, however the execution left something to be desired. Every single 80's references were overly explained. I understand I'm not the targeted demographic but I don't need to be born in the 80's to know about classic films, music and fashion trends, so it's safe to assume that most people would have a general idea of the references given. Rather than explaining it maybe there could have been a list at the back of the book that explains them. ANYWAYS... it wasn't for me unfortunately.
