Astrid Sees All by Natalie Standiford

4.0

Astrid Sees All was such a fun read! It was different (in a good way) What intrigued me the most about this book when I first learned about it was the setting! It sounded very artsy and very grunge and I loved it. It so fun seeing Astrid/Phoebe during her time in NYC and seeing how her and her friend Carmen lived. The author was very realistic and didn’t hold back on how much drug usage there was during that time. I honestly felt that Phoebe and Carmen were the epitome of lost souls and it was very amusing seeing their journey through NYC and pretending to have everything figured out. I thought this book was clever, fun, and above all creative.
