Hard to pinpoint exactly why I liked this book so much -- maybe partly because it was a break from all the heavy, heavy stuff I've been reading recently, and this didn't take itself seriously, and it was one of the first "funny" books I've read recently that truly was funny. Sometimes laugh-out-loud-on-the-bus funny.
Charlotte is a really recognizable character, and she is written self-consciously in these interconnected stories. But there was just something fresh and wonderful about her voice, and I feel like Elizabeth Crane is playful without being frivolous. She really has a story to tell -- or, more accurately, a character to tell. Her first novel is definitely going on my to-read list.
