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

3.0

My mistake, I vastly mistook what this novel was going to be. I thought this was going to be commentary on what it was like to be a millennial and that only, not meandering paragraphs about the author's personal life. This is more a memoir and a personal remembrance piece than it is any sort of "essay" about what life was like back then. It starts off that way, kind of, but then she starts talking about being a mother and liking pumpkin spice lattes or whatever and she lost me completely. I don't think I'm old enough to be considered a millennial, but I'm old enough to relate to (or remember; experience) many of the pop culture moments from that time period. I watched a lot of reruns and listened to all the songs they did with my mother. That said, perhaps I'm too young for this novel. I mean, I don't really dress like this age group nor was I partying in college in 2005 so... Guess I can't relate.
