Where'd You Go, Bernadette by Maria Semple

5.0

Some people probably fell in love and related to Bee. I found myself feeling like Bernadette. An East Coast transplant, Bernadette complains about Seattle in the same way I often found myself complaining about Boulder. Her stereotypical East Coast personality is something I understand and relate to.

Perhaps I feel like Bernadette because I'm getting ready to move again. Reading Semple's book, I thought about the person I was when I moved from New York to Colorado, the person I lost living in Colorado, and the person I am now.

Thankfully it didn't take me twenty years to figure myself out.
