The Used World
I love Haven Kimmel's books and her style of writing is both intuitive and hilarious. However, I was lost throughout this entire book. All of the complex relationships, the flipping back and forth of characters and times, had me scratching my head the whole way though the book. A few questions were answered at the end of the book, but some things I just never understood. Disappointing.
