For some reason, I decided to read another of Capote's works.

I like how free-spirited Holly is. But overall I don't really care for the characters.

The writer „Fred“ is in love with Holly and gives us insight into Holly's crazy life.

Page 20, at least a little bit.
 

Lidi si samozřejmě mysleli, že jistě jsem taky teplá. A to se ví, že jsem. Jako každý: aspoň trochu. No, a co?

 

I liked the end because it was realistic and made the whole book make more sense.

I could get around without reading this book but it wasn't horrible.

I gave this a 4 when I read it in 2013 but I must’ve been high, or else I read a very different edition.
