Making a Scene by Constance Wu

funny lighthearted slow-paced

2.5

Discombobulated since it isn't linear. Some of the essays felt irrelevant to an overall story that the author Constance Wu was trying to tell about who she is and how she got there. There were a few interesting parts, but overall it just wasn't that insightful or exciting. I don't feel I know more about the author than I could have learned from reading a few interviews and Wikipedia (and sometimes less, since she doesn't even name the boyfriend she had a baby with). This isn't really a memoir, more like an essay collection about her life. I wouldn't recommend it, and only kept reading to see if it got better but it didn't.
