Hey Everyone,
I am going to review the book "All the Ugly and Wonderful Things," by Bryn Greenwood. This book is hot off the press as it is published today August 9, 2016 by St. Martin's Press: Thomas Dunne Books. For those of you who would like to purchase a copy of this book CLICK HERE. This book is about a young girl Wavy, who is raising herself and her younger brother because of her meth addicted parent's neglect. Wavy comes to meet a troubled older man, and forms a serious relationship with him. They come to both rescue each other. This book shows the depth of love and how far one will go in the name of love.
Overall I rated this book three stars out of five. While this book was well written, I did have a hard time reading this book. At times it got uncomfortable reading the details of the sexual narrative. However, I do commend this author for writing this piece of fiction, because in life there are always going to be things that make us uncomfortable. It is a matter of exposing oneself to these things in order for us to understand and feel comfortable. I love how the end of this book tied everything all together, in that a family is what you want it to be. Love is love and all love is real.
I would like to thank Netgalley, Bryn Greenwood, and St. Martin's Press: Thomas Dunne Books for giving me the opportunity to read this book in exchange for an honest review.
Until the next page,
Jill
