Sorry for the Inconvenience by Farah Naz Rishi
5.0
It would be untrue to say that I read "Sorry for the Inconvenience" in one sitting. I read it in two, but only because I needed to sleep.
This is a gorgeously-written memoir it rolls along and occasionally jolted me, but I loved that it was not "Trauma Lit" (not dissing traum lit - it's what I write myself!). I found great pleasure in reading a memoir that was not an exorcism of the writer's ghosts, but a whistlestop tour of her life including major life-events and struggles.
"Sorry for the Inconvenience" is a well-written story with a few hidden gems in the form of turns of phrase that really made me appreciate the author's facility with language.
