¿Qué tengo de malo?

3.2:

There's no way I'm letting myself get stuck in a slump, when I've been having so much fun, and doing so well with my reading. I felt one creeping in—I didn't want to have three DNFs in a row—, so I decided to give this one a go. It seemed short and sweet.

And it was. There was no discernible plot, it's just fragmented glances into Macarena's life, from early childhood to the angst of her teenage years. I thought back to how I myself fared during those years, I went through similar experiences (curiously, the home invasion. But also, the desperate craving for the seal of approval of that one female friend, the awkwardness of middle school parties, and not fitting in. The dawning realization that your parents are just people).

It was engaging, even if I didn't feel any strong pull towards the characters. That's probably on me because I don't particularly enjoy thinking about that part of my life.

Anyway, it was fun and I think I've cleared the fog up a little. On to the next!
