pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Didion‘s writing is stream-of-consciousness perfection. The shifts between first- and third-person, also perfection. A brief book with short chapters, Maria‘s current state of being in 1960s California unravels quickly. She‘s a bit of a mess, but you love her instantly. Something about this reminds me of Franny & Zooey by JD Salinger; a compliment I don‘t give lightly. Sullen, intense, and just exquisite. ⬇️

tpixie Wow Joan Didian keeps popping up in my life. She had a quote and an article she wrote was referenced in the Netflix documentary Martha regarding Martha Stewart. And there‘s a new book out about her, and now this!![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)

Didion and Babitzbritt_brooke @tpixie So, I read Didion & Babitz a few weeks ago (it was a Babitz love fest, but a decent read). I read a few of Didion‘s nonfiction books a while back but this was my first fiction. Sparked by reading Didion & Babitz. I also read a Babitz book for the first time, too. I‘m #TeamDidion. 😂 (edited) 3w
