A review by kaylinvm94
One in a Millennial: On Friendship, Feelings, Fangirls, and Fitting In by Kate Kennedy

funny reflective slow-paced

3.5

Part memoir (despite saying it's not), part commentary on the formative culture and socializing experienced by many (white, middle class, American) millennial women, full of pop culture and nostalgia. As a younger millennial, a lot of these experiences were spot on, with a couple being a few years ahead of me, but overall a real trip down memory lane framed in the larger social context we were experiencing these things in. The content is interesting but as a whole the book is very long winded and took a long time to get through. The author is clearly a good writer, but the point often gets lost in pun-filled rambling. 

Thanks to NetGalley and St. Martins Press for an advance review copy of this book.
