Mehso-so

Was very excited to get to this one but sadly it didn‘t deliver. The writing was vivid and intelligent, however there was virtually no plot and that made the book drag. It felt like reading vignettes or short stories but Baby of the Family is presented as a book. It‘s basically a coming of age story. There is a part 2 called The Hand I Fan With and I will eventually get to it. Baby of the Family was Ansa‘s debut novel.
