The After Party by Anton DiSclafani

2.0

What a whole bunch of "meh." I'd give it one star except the author is talented and can tell a story. Unfortunately, not much story to tell here. Very rich Houston social scene in 1950s, Cece Buchanan narrates the story of her life with her best friend, the beautiful queen bee, Joan Fortier. I'm not sure if the reader is supposed to be rooting for this unhealthy, codependent "friendship" but it's never clear to me what I would hope to happen. And really, uh, nothing does happen...the entire book.
