Title: Strange, rambling, and adrift
Product review: My primary reaction to this book was confusion; it was just strange. It is similar to many other pieces of contemporary fiction, in that it gave a rather spare account of events and followed the actions and emotions of the characters without filling in much detail. I understood the point of the stories, but I just couldn't make myself care about the characters. I found myself getting annoyed with them for making bad choices and acting so detached. The only part I did enjoy was the final story, when Jane tried to follow "The Rules" to semi-disasterous results. That made me chuckle because I'm always torn between thinking that "The Rules" are ridiculous and wondering if maybe they really do work. Overall, this book just didn't work for me.
