This books is an easy read and well written with comic touches. Not really a story per se, but vignettes of a young woman's coming of age.

Important to remember it's a collection of short stories, not a congruent story.

I enjoyed this book. Jane the main character is funny in her observations of life and the world around her. She seems very real to me. The only thing that was a little off for me is how the author goes in and out of different styles for each little vignette. There is also one part in the middle that has nothing to do with the story as a whole other than the family that is written about lives in the main characters building. It seemed haphazard to throw that in there. I would recomend this book.

I liked how the story line progressed by using a series of inter-related short stories.
