Anthropology of an American Girl
Anthropology of an American Girl: A Novel
by Hilary Thayer Hamann
Scattered (1/20/2011)
Passages of this book moved me...I thought the author had moments of pure brilliance. BUT, it was too long, jumped all over the place and in the end the story seemed ridiculously dramatic and just...so unbelievable. No American girl I've ever known has lived such a life. I would not recommend it.
