| The first half of the novel was funny, engaging, bringing the 80s college experience to life. Then… the story jumped way ahead in a rushed, schmaltzy way. Not sure what the writer was thinking… | |

| Captivating. Szalay does so much on the page with doing less. He leaves the reader to sort things out. A compelling page turner. | |

| I read this after seeing Haring’s exhibit at Walker Art Museum last year. He was a fascinating artist, prolific, exuberant, a zest for life. At one point he realizes he’s a drawer on the level of Picasso—no sketching needed, just draw. The book itsel ...more | |

| Hall tackles her childhood in rural Vermont. She doesn’t hold back. Sex, illness, trailer parks, finding her way out and also understanding the place she grew up defines her. Recommend. | |

| Swashbuckling, high seas adventure with a dash of gallows humor, sex, violence; a coming of age story. Strange, but I thought of Voltaire when I read it. Inventive language and turns of plot. Recommend. | |

| A memoir about Karr’s early childhood thru teenage years growing up in small town Texas. The first half of the book is seeped in language and place. It’s funny and sad. The stories lose steam for me as the book comes to an end. Still, engrossing fres ...more | |
