I Was Told It Would Get Easier
by Abbi Waxman
I Was Told It Would Get Easier can easily be summed up as tales of a spoiled, entitled, unremarkable rich white girl on an extremely expensive east coast college tour at schools her overworked single mother will pay for. It is told from both the teen and the mother's points of view and though I tried to be sympathetic to the teen experience, every foray into her brain was frustrating. I just wanted to slap her in her undeserving face and give her a reality trip as she whined about the over privileged life her mother seemed to work extremely hard for. Besides it being the age old tale of teens and their parents just don't understand each other not much else can be said about the plot. I guess there is a bit about the purpose of life/school/work but even that is not really delved into very deeply so you are left feeling like you read a whole lot of nothing, it was not very compelling.
