How Did You Get This Number by Sloane Crosley

3.0

I had read Sloane Crosley's first collection of essays, I Was Told There'd Be Cake, and loved her writing style. Her biting Manhattan sarcasm seeps into every word. However, I feel the endings fall slightly flat. The build-up is amazing, but the finale is a little less so. Her writing seems to have matured a bit in this second attempt. I particularly enjoyed the final essay where she managed to perfectly describe the exact moment I am currently experiencing in my stage of a break up. Genius. Best of all, this is a super quick read. Give it two sittings and you'll be done.
