2.0
That being said, I think I would have enjoyed this more if it were a full-length novel about the whole Glass family and Franny had gotten some sort of resolution. Proof that she was going to be okay. From the beginning, I felt like I was dropped in the middle of a situation I had no idea about and I was expected to piece together the story without much information. This also kind of reminded me of a blue print for "The Virgin Suicides", I don't know if I consider that a bad thing or a good thing.
Two stars for Franny and Franny alone.
