Review of 'I Was Told It Would Get Easier' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
I just adore Abbi Waxman. That's all I can say.. I don't have kids, can't even imagine how complicated it must be as a single mom with a teenage girl getting ready to leave for college nowadays. Can't even relate to any of it, as far as my own life.
So why am I reading stuff about lives so different from mine?? Because she is hilarious, wise, fascinating, and she just grabs the reader and never lets go. LOVE her characters, love her use of POV (which I am usually not a fan of switching around), and the slow unfold of what is really going on.
Thank you, Abbi Waxman, for another nearly sleepless night, gobbling down your delicious conclusion.
You are a master of "Show, don't tell."
