Sept Evening Bk Club: She's Come Undone by Wally Lamb
Details
I recently found my copy from childhood and also want to re-read it for a GoodReads challenge. The author released another amazing book earlier this year and it reminded me that I should go back to this one. #Nostalgia LOL
I will try out an evening meeting for a change, despite our group name. This is still intended to be casual and I am not making a reservation. Berry Park is a huge place and I am sure we will easily find a spot to hang.
From GoodReads:
In this extraordinary coming-of-age odyssey, Wally Lamb invites us to hitch a wild ride on a journey of love, pain, and renewal with the most heartbreakingly comical heroine to come along in years.
Meet Dolores Price. She's 13, wise-mouthed but wounded, having bid her childhood goodbye. Stranded in front of her bedroom TV, she spends the next few years nourishing herself with the Mallomars, potato chips, and Pepsi her anxious mother supplies. When she finally orbits into young womanhood at 257 pounds, Dolores is no stronger and life is no kinder. But this time she's determined to rise to the occasion and give herself one more chance before she really goes under.
