How to Build a Girl by Caitlin Moran

2.0

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this just Moran's [b:How to Be a Woman|10600242|How to Be a Woman|Caitlin Moran|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1405909800s/10600242.jpg|15507935] slightly (barely) rewritten? More autobiographical than fiction, it leads to a repetitive and limited main character and unremarkable (maybe, again, because I've already heard it) story of growth and development. Moran's bare honesty peeks out from this otherwise endless self-essay with its barest mask of fiction, and her humor survives the exhausting life-advice rambles, but this book is overall a disappointment.
