pammoore 's review for:
Providence
by Caroline Kepnes
This was the kind of book I was alternatively trying to read as fast as possible to see what would happen next and stopping to take a break so that I could prolong the joy of reading. It only would have been better had it been named "Pawtucket." (aka my hometown). J/k. Kepnes really captured the city of Providence. Her characters were beautiful, flawed, and realistic. I think I would have given it 5 stars except Jon's situation wasn't realistic enough for me. I kept wanting to know how he got a cel phone, how he could afford to pay his rent, buy a car, etc. I know it's fiction, suspension of disbelief and all that but that part wasn't clicking for me and it was a little distracting. Still, Kepnes is a genius and one of my greatest regrets in life is having been out of town when she was in my city doing a book event at Comic-Con.
