Book Review of America the Beautiful

America the Beautiful
reviewed on + 3 more book reviews


A little slow and tedious at first, but as a fan of Frank Zappa, I felt I owed it to the author to stick it out. And I'm glad I did, in spite of the "chick lit" vibe I got when I began reading. The story was a funny, sad, and just plain entertaining journey into the crazy, mixed-up world of America Throne, daughter of a genius.

It'd be easy to say that this is fiction based on Moon's own life, but isn't all fiction based on someone's life to an extent?
