Well i'll be honest...from the read up the story sounded like it was going to be about some spoilt brat who got what she want the entire story before something went wrong and the first twenty per cent or so was like that. Then we began to see a softer more vulnerable side to Sophie. At around 30% she's sent to Africa and things got really interesting.

As it turns out i really enjoyed it. It was a lot different to other NA books I've read hence the 5* review.

"I just re-read Ask the Dust by John Fante. It’s semiautobiographical about a guy who’s trying to be a writer in Los Angeles, and it takes place during the Great Depression. It was one of my favorite books in college. It was crazy to re-read it in my 30s, as well as to live vicariously through some of the places that I haven’t seen in almost two months. I’m also trying to keep things light so I’ve been reading Fifty Great Short Stories by Milton Crane."
