I wanted to like this?! Babitz isn’t a bad writer and she certainly has a unique voice but this was a little too random and scattered for me to enjoy.

- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? No
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

idk whyyy I struggled with this one so much. I feel like the first part had almost a consistent narrative (that I was into! learning about her childhood was interesting!) but then the rest of the book was just so random and I wasn’t connecting to any of the stories or people in them. Until taquitos and rendezvous. but yeah, not my fav :(
