Christmas holiday reading.... minimal comments.

The second of three books about Eva Wylie that I've read out of order. The first book, Bucket Nut, is definitely the best and I think this is the one that least belongs on a mystery shelf. I'm sorry that I don't have any more of Eva's adventures to read about now though.

4.0

The book is written from the point of view of a female wrestler. After being neglected by her alcoholic mother and living on the streets she tries to manage her live relying on her strength which doesn't work very well. But it is a very unusual perspective and even in it's limitations  quite interesting.

An unreliable narrator that you root for, but there is always a sadness running through
