A review by bookwormie
Making a Scene by Constance Wu

adventurous emotional funny reflective sad fast-paced

3.75

Her collections of essays felt like a journal dictating pivotal (few felt irrelevant) moments in her life and were not in chronological order so it was a jolt to transition sometimes. Lots of 90s nostalgia, relationships, challenges and poor treatment in her career, and tons of self reflections and regrets. In this book she is courageous, vulnerable, and has a big personality; a bit annoying sometimes tbh). She narrates the audiobook and damn, when she gets quivery and emotional about some really hard, painful moments I can relate to= really moving to experience her book in this way.
