Overall. Not a GREAT book.
General Plot: A young girls living on the Jersey Shore decided to get married to an older man at the age of Seventeen. She has two children right a way. While trying to raise her kids she stuggles with her husbands affair and her own desire to 'join the family buisness' as a bookie. This book offers moments of reflection and self-thought.
Best Line: "Air- Conditioning and Television: Before every household had and air conditioner, people sat outside on their stoops. So who was going to bother you, if I am outside watching? And televsion movies... before that people were out walking to the theater, coming home-decent people-out on the streets until eleven-thirty, midnight. Buth then they started staying home. Theair conditioner blasting, eyes glued to the TV set. The streets belonged to the criminals."
Maybe if the governement reccomended that people turned off their televisons, and air conditioners, we would not be dealing with and obese nation, and gang violence running rampent in Chicago...Just a thought for you politions out there....
