“Sweet Girl”

 



“Hilarious, heartbreaking, and true.” -NPR


Where to start with this one… 

A 16 year old high school drop-out. A drug addicted mother. A low life meth cooker/dealer. An alcoholic one time father figure. A baby. A sister thousands of miles away. Michigan. Snow. Lots and lots of snow.


I was drawn to the story, hoping that Mulhauser would find a happily-ever-after ending. I was appalled at all the drug use. I was rooting for the protagonist. And I worried about the baby throughout the whole novel.


Intense, heartbreaking, and suspenseful. NOT in any way, shape, or form - hilarious.
