American Pop, by Snowden Wright
3.0
This was hard to rate, so I kind of went for average.
"The gas chromatography indicates we're off by as little as one point three grams of something."
As someone who does GC/MS for flavor for work every. single. day. this made my brain ITCH. That's not how GC/MS works.
My biggest problem wasn't the itchy brain though. This was probably the jumpiest story I've ever read. The individual stories were really quite interesting! But the way it is structured has you jumping in time, viewpoint, or both in each chapter - sometimes even on the same page!
I think I would have liked this so much more if it just stuck to a single structure. Its like there were so many ideas that the author wanted to try them all, when it should have followed the idea of Coco Chanel and taken at least one artistic style out before it left the (publishing) house.
