It feels weird to rate a diary so this rating is for Selma Blair’s narration.
What strikes me, and maybe a lot of people, is how normal Frank is. Even with everything going on and the very real fear, she remains a young girl who had the same complaints, hopes, dreams, and squabbles that we all have. I really enjoyed my time with her, and Selma Blair brought her to life like I never could. I’ll be thinking of this diary for a while.

This was entertaining, but magical realism just isn’t for me. But I’m glad I read at least one book from probably the most famous Latin American author to date.

A slow paced book I ripped through. Taylor holds a magnifying glass to the minutiae of humanity. The quiet and overlooked ways we are threaded together even as we pull apart.

You guys aren’t gonna like what I have to say but alas, the researcher in me has been activated and wants to rip this book limb from limb.
