review 1: Sort of a sad book. The kids are products of poor upbringing and when Immy (Imogene) finds herself pregnant there is no surprise she is as stupid as her alcoholic Mother. Bringing up her 8 year old sister was not enough to learn about contraception. Maybe her boyfriend and baby daddy Matt having 7 siblings wasn't the second clue. She needed a bitch slap. Aside from that the thing that I was bothered about was the ending. I don't want to be a spoil sport but there was no "choice" made and that annoyed me. You cant bring up a topic and set the stage and drop the ball. I very rarely give a book 2 stars sorry
review 2: Interesting read. The book is pretty well-written, pretty heart-wrenching at times. The first-person narrator is well-characterized, with strengths... more and flaws. I'm not sure there are many 19-year-olds who would evolve into such an honest self-assessment of self under the circumstances Imogene (Immy) finds herself in. Part of me is disappointed with the way the author chose to end the book, but as I consider it, the ending is pretty authentic to the rest of the story--anything different would have trivialized some portion of the book. less
