A review by nancidrum
A Good Hard Look by Ann Napolitano

4.0

I have never read any of the writing of Flannery O'Connor, although now after reading this book, she will be on my list to read. In this novel, by the very talented Ann Napolitano, Flannery is at the center of the book. I was trying to read this book quickly as it was during a reading challenge on GR, but it was near impossible. There are so many beautiful sentences and paragraphs that just insist on being reread and savored. The storyline itself is compelling and held my interest. The volcano of emotions that take place were very much not expected.

At the end, I was torn on the rating, but settled on 4 stars. It would make a good book for a book discussion, although there are some very disturbing parts.
