Very disjointed story…had difficult time finishing. Would not recommend.

Oh my god. This I think is a story that won’t ever leave me. There were points I didn’t think I could go on. I was so consumed I couldn’t put it down. And what a great way to end the story. The past few books I’ve read I hated the endings and this was just perfect. So glad I read this

Great book, great author. I recommend this book.

If I could give this book "0" stars, I would. This truly is the worst New York Times Bestseller/Oprah's Book Club disgusting, mis-guided literary effort imaginable. Coming of age story? What lessons does this self-loathing vermin of a human being learn, exactly? She certainly never learns that shutting herself in her room, eating her way through the junk food aisle won't help. She never learns that showing love & affection towards those she has been blessed with in her life is a gift of love you should treasure because you may lose it one day. I wish you luck. If you can find something redeeming in these words (And yes, there are typos everywhere, as the others mentioned before) then perhaps one of us will get our money's worth out of this book.

I read this book as a teenager and developed a resentment toward the main character. I reread it now at 23 and can say that I fully understand Delores and all of her discrepancies. Love this book. One I always go back to.

This is my go-to book when I'm in a funk. Hard to put down, so make some time to read it. ❤

A good read! Kept my attention all the way to the very end!

Another story about a broken person and her path to becoming whole. It's probably a good book for people who enjoy that sort of story but I prefer books with a more active plot line.

This book is so powerful and beautifully written with the ability to change the reader forever.

Excellent! Poignant, sad, funny, captivating!
