Mennonite in a Little Black Dress: A Memoir of Going Home by Rhoda Janzen
3.0
Sometimes funny. I could relate to some of her tales of Mennonite-hood, though I was raised in a MUCH less conservative tradition. But overall, I was uncomfortable about how cruelly she portrayed her family and friends. Blunt, but caustic almost. I just thought, if it was me being written about, I would hate for the world to see me that way. I've also heard she stretched the truth? Not surprising, but still... Oh well, I hear the book after this one was redeeming. We'll see if that means I'll actually read it...
