A review by mollywetta
From the Corner of the Oval by Beck Dorey-Stein
I mean this was fun, and I am totally the target audience, but even I was embarrassed for the author in a lot of ways, which oddly seemed like it was the point? I would have thought there would be more politics, too. The only issue the author really seems to care about is gun control. And she references her own writing so much, rather than just letting it speak for itself. But the hot mess is so endearing I easily overlooked the train wreck element. I think this would have been more successful as fiction in the vein of Devil Wears Prada, rather than sold as memoir.
