Ian's Reviews > Face It

I really wanted something juicy with all kinds of crazy punk 70's NYC shit and this was a major let down. It's PG-13 and in many cases, you’re trying to read between the details of what really happened. The tone was watered down and not at all convincing. The linear structure (we did this and then this and then this...) is almost a powerpoint presentation but with no style or getting to any real story. Harry seems like she's holding back and trying to skate around some major events and not really telling the reader what the heck she really felt/thought at the time (or even now in hindsight).

I expected more blunt truth rather than a safe zone around the rocky stuff. It was in those jaggy crevices that the reader wants to go but she just skims along not even giving us a glance.
