Title: What is happening to Francesca?
Product review: Does she need to make mortgage payments? Why oh why did she publish this laziness? I didn't think I could be any more disappointed after "I Was a Teenage Fairy" - wonderful concept, execution dead in the water - but at least her last book gave some evidence of craft and attention. This book reads as if it was cobbled together by underpaid interns from notes scribbled on cocktail napkins during publishers' Christmas parties. And it is all the more painful when I compare it to the lyricism, vision, and genius of "Weetzie Bat." Francesca, Francesca, hear me: you have it in you to be a truly great writer. Do not be seduced by how easily entertained your fans are. You must have enough money by now; please, give us the true portrait of America it is in you to write.
