The title drew me in on Netgalley, so I requested a copy. I've never read the blog, but the book was easy enough to follow. I just found Amelia to be a rather unlikeable protagonist. (Reminiscent of Julie in Julie & Julia.)
I appreciate her honesty, but she came across as pretty harsh sometimes, especially to her grandma. And some of the mundane details about her schooling and her part time jobs were just dull. All in all, I'm not really sure why I finished it.
Although I may have to try toasting Cheerios like she mentions. Sounds quite yummy!

Adequate light reading. Nothing really happens and it isn't funny which most memoirs of this sort that I like are but not bad.
I have no doubt that this was realistic (or fairly, since everything's exaggerated somewhat). But the tone is so melancholy at times that it starts to drag on, and I just felt weighted down by the contents of the book.
