Welcome to Utopia: Notes from a Small Town

Welcome to Utopia: Notes from a Small Town - Karen Valby I grew up in a small town (and hated it) so I had a hard time liking a single person in this book. The book's aimlessness and simplicity mirrored the subjects with which the author interacted. Which isn't her fault necessarily but my ambivalence towards all these people's lives made this a slow read for me. I thought she wrote well and told a good story, though. Unfortunately there's only so much one can do with notes from a small town.
