Title: “Such a Fun Age”
Review: this one again from my daughter, in her ongoing quest to raise my consciousness. The story of a twenty something African -American woman trying to find herself and “become an Adult”, while working minimally as a faux-nanny. The story is intriguing, with a world of very discreet racism, and coming-of-age angst. The characters develop nicely and the narrative keeps you engaged. Pretty well written for a first time novelist, but not an art form yet. I liked it despite my initial eye-rolling at being way too old to read this story……..guess, I’m not.
