Elisa Albert's The Book of Dahlia
A somewhat angsty Jewish chick in her late 20s trying to figure out what to do with her life is diagnosed with a deadly brain tumor. As she tries to cope with her possibly impending death, she flashes back to her troubled childhood and teen years. Maybe this book resonated with me b/c I could relate to Dahlia's teen years (especially the pop culture references), but I thought it was a really moving novel. A-/B+.
