“i was hungry.” 
Although this book did not necessarily reach its full potential, (and oddly had quite a few typos), It still managed to reel me in and keep me hooked. I found that the novel, in its essence, portrayed a refreshing tribute to the innate female hunger. The constant need for bigger and better, not knowing exactly when satisfaction will be met, and yet pursuing the thought of fulfillment even if it means relinquishing every ounce of security that one has. The protagonist proves reckless and impulsive, with little care as to how her actions affect others, only taking occasional precautions so as not to find herself in trouble.
