Status Updates From American Girls

This has been a very observational book, which is probably why I like it so much. Anna's narration perfectly captures her situation with her family (which sounds really sad now, actually; her mother was really rude about not wanting Anna back because of her own diagnosis) and also just her general thoughts. It's been pretty good.

This book is truly hilarious. I don't think I've chuckled this much for a while.

This chapter offered information about Charles Manson, which I was thankful about. I'm curious to see how Anna's summer in LA will play out, but I also am excited to see the connections between the Manson girls and her life. I also really liked the phone conversation between her and her stepmom.

The first chapter was a lot of setup, but the second one was absolutely snarky and hilarious. I enjoyed Anna's jabs at her half-sister's "boyfriend". I'm excited to see where the Manson girl research will go.

I just finished the prologue. I'm really interested to see where this book goes, as Anna, our narrator, definitely has a lot of dark snark to her. Only time will tell.

Mental patient was just used as a slur. No thanks.

This just doesn't seem like my thing :|

Oh. Well....not sure I agree with her.
