A Good Hard Look by Ann Napolitano

2.0

I feel very meh about this book. I read it, I finished it, but I never got that into it, and I don't have super strong feelings about it now. If anything I think I'm leaning towards disliking it. It's really kind of a tragic book and there's a gross inappropriate relationship that takes up a lot of story time. I also have absolutely no feelings about Flannery O'Conner, having never read a single word she wrote, so there's nothing redeemable there either. I'm left feeling like I kind of wasted my time on this book, which is unfortunate. Actually, "unfortunate" really sums up the book in general. Lots of people making unfortunate choices, lots of unfortunate stuff happens, I unfortunately don't realize this in time to stop reading until it's all over and I'm left feeling depressed and melancholy...
