A Mess of Everything by Miss Lasko-Gross

4.0

I enjoyed this much more than her first book [b:escape from special|41124|Escape From Kathmandu|Kim Stanley Robinson|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1169580733s/41124.jpg|1963543]. This is the second volume of a semi-autobiographical series, and while the first was about childhood, this is about being a teenager. Specifically, an angsty, outspoken feminist teenager in the mid-90s, which just happens to hit me right where I live. Each story is only a few pages, but there is continuity in the protagonist's struggle to figure out how to combat injustice and how to have friends that she actually likes.
