A review by alicebeastcat
Dear Miss Metropolitan by Carolyn Ferrell

4.0

Ferrell has an unusual writing style, which sometimes made the imagery and impact of the words more powerful than what words alone could normally accomplish -- and sometimes I just couldn't follow what was happening, as much as I wanted to. This is a tough one to rate. I wish the author had made it a little more accessible for me as the reader to enter the world she created. But I also think her style could be appropriate for representing the characters' thoughts given what they've been through. I'm rounding up because of the sheer creativity (I've never read a book quite like this, which I appreciate) and because I will not forget, and do not want to forget, the characters of Fern, Gwinnie and Jesenia.
