- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I like her less, now, after reading the book ? pretty liberal.
Would have been nice for the narrator to use a dialect, or something to distinguish the different characters she voiced. Half the time you forget who she’s referencing and think its Myrna, when she was actually depicting another woman reflecting on her memories of Myrna.
All and all, a good read…1 person found this helpful
