Looking for Alibrandi by Melina Marchetta

4.0

This book, Marchetta's debut, got better as it progressed. At first, I had a hard time connecting with Josephine, whose relationships seemed a little forced and whose interactions in those relationships seemed melodramatic. But, as I got to know her, I liked her more and more and felt the connection. Overall, Marchetta's writing improved with her career, as we all hope it does, but this book was a solid start and very interesting to read about some things Australians faced in the 90's.
