If you like books with a defined plot, you would hate this. If you're just fine riding along on a stream of consciousness, then this is the book for you. Dunn has created a compelling and unreliable narrator who is serving time for cashing bad checks. She dips in and out of her past and Prison and childhood and it's hard to tell what's real and what's in her troubled mind, but the moments of lucidity are beautiful. Lots of underlining took place!
