Structured like a collection of short stories featured with different lead character, not linear, but I only see some connections of the consecutive chapters. Brutally honest, no surprise, though often heartfelt. I'm not keen on the theme of women being victimized. My favorite chapter is "Actress", in a consistent linguistic style with the rest of the book, but flawless, with humor and compassion. I was almost (but not) brought to tears by Andrea's interaction with her father in"All Grown Up". The final chapter didn't work for me at all.
