The Adults

I completely appreciated the voice of the main character and related to her. Although the book is essentially about "white people problems", the results of such problems are psychologically far reaching. the fact that the adults act like children and the children long to be adults is striking in its commonality. in this book the main characters sexuality is forever altered by the actions of her parents divorce. this is something many of us "first generation kids of divorced parents" can understand and attest to. I believe many children of divorce remember the benign Mr Basketball that shows up for us, then realizing too late that perhaps we were just children all along

Worst book I ever listened to. Author jumped around too much and where she created a lot of meat and potatoes in the beginning story it just ran flat. Tried to be too wordy without development and lacked an outcome.
