The Nanny Diaries by Emma McLaughlin, Nicola Kraus

1.0

Some scenes of subtle child abuse are touching and worth thinking about. Very weak main character. Vanity. Nothing interesting in style.

Some brilliant scenes, I laughed more than three times also; but the second and especially the third parts of the book are week. It seemed to me, the author was falling apart "morally" in the process of writing, it feels like he is getting tired to develop his own characters and simplifies them to caricatures, watering it all down with boring endless descriptions and common knowledge data.
I am very disappointed.

It seems Coelho writes for young teenagers...
