Echo by Francesca Lia Block

2.0

This book was really weird. it was more like a giant poem, even though it's not poetry. it's a bunch of kind of disjointed stories about a girl named echo, and people she meets in her life. some are from her point of view, some are from others points of view. the printing is quite large, and the book is short, so it was a fast read, but most of the time reading it, i was bored, or confused. id call this a magical realism book, and ive never liked that particular genre much. but if you do, you should read this book, you'd probably enjoy it. even though, sometimes her life, and the lives of the rest of the people in this book were just so real that it makes you feel depressed, and only the magical parts lighten it up a bit.
