All Grown Up

When judge Laia Garcia picked this title for March’s BOTM, she said, “I’m only on page eleven of All Grown Up, but I can already tell that this is the perfect book to read on the first day of my ‘grown-woman takes first-ever alone vacation to an exotic location in order to shed past and re-emerge more powerful than ever.’ I will sit in a banquet in the hotel restaurant and will read the book in one sitting, while drinking lots of coffee and eating Spanish pastries. Like me and my friends. Andrea is a woman unlike many others I’ve come across in my readings. She’s not perfect, but her imperfections are not steeped in the tragic. We meet all her friends and romantic conquests, and learn how they came into Andrea’s life in short chapters that could stand alone as short stories. So you can read the book slowly, like for a month, on your commute, or sit with it and devour it because what’s the point of saving it for later? A book for the women who are warned, but persist.” Add Audible narration for $4.49.
