The writing was full of wit, humor and the book read like poetry in short prose. I did not find this book depressing like I’ve read some others have thought.
I am going to take care of myself, so you don’t need to worry that your pain might hurt me” – Jenny Offill, Weather Lizzie fulfills her roles, while struggling with her own questions, while answering deranged and questioning emails for her former mentor Sylvia’s podcast. She is wife to a content Ben, a mother to young Eli, daughter of her troubled mother, and a sister to her drug addict brother who can’t seem to get his life in order Henry. Weather narrates main character and city dweller Lizzie as she navigates her life as a librarian at a university where she once had a lot of promise as a student. This book is part fictional memoir, literary work, and humor-filled tale. It was a small book in general, but I was intrigued from beginning to end. I really did not think I would, but after I started reading, I couldn’t put it down.
