Quick read, and really entertaining and enjoyable. In retrospect I wonder if I would read this BEFORE Glass Castle as that would be chronologically accurate. I enjoyed this book a lot more than Jeannette's first, the characters were simply more likable to me, and I adore a strong female lead. This thrilled me in my love for historical fiction. I had also read The Empire of the Summer Moon right before, which although that was non-fiction, it really provided a GREAT foundation for this novel. Recommend.
