Last Woman Standing by Amy Gentry
3.0
This is a well-written and -paced novel that was fun to read. Overall I recommend it.
What made it hard for me is that Dana is supposed to be a standup comic--a GOOD standup comic. And the material written for her couldn't have been less funny! I know delivery makes the joke, but I just couldn't find a voice for the words that would elicit a giggle nevermind a real laugh. It distracted me from the story every time Dana did her act.
You should still read this book if you like women-centric revenge stories.
