panThank God this book was only 150 pages because it was still a slough to get through. A stream of conciseness taking place at the moment of impact - a car plummeting into black murky water. Based loosely on Mary Jo Kopechne, who died while in the care of a drunk Senator Ted Kennedy. Here Kelly Kelleher, an idealistic young woman meets her fate at a July 4th party. We know how it‘s going to end and we really don‘t learn the why. Not for me 👇🏽
Cinfhen Sorry, Steph!! I‘m a bad buddy reader. Hope you find it more enjoyable @Reviewsbylola 5y

Cinfhen Blonde is a chunkster @Cathythoughts but I‘ve heard it‘s very good / this did have a great opening but then..... @TrishB 5y
Reviewsbylola I‘ve got 50 pages left and I hate it too. JCO is such a toss up for me. As I was reading it, I figured you would hate it. 😆 5y
Reviewsbylola Blonde is amazing!! @Cathythoughts 5y
Cinfhen Hahahahaha @Reviewsbylola I want my 2.5 hours back 😂🤣😂This book was AWFUL 😝 5y
Cathythoughts @Reviewsbylola thanks! I‘m looking forward to giving it a whirl 👍🏻❤️ 5y
CafeMom This book is on the 1001 list so I can't skip it. I have only ready one other book by the author, Blond, and I really enjoyed it. I am seeing a theme with her books as Blond was a fictionalized account of Marilyn Monroe. I loath stream of consciousnesses so this will be a tough read for me. 5y
Cinfhen It‘s SUPER SHORT so it won‘t be too painful to get through @CafeMom 5y
Bette Boy, I read this years ago. Did not like it. 5y
