The novel, Transition Girl, was rivetting reading, even with it's unusual journal style structure, providing intelligent thought provoking insights into the nature of human connection. And I was haunted by it long after I finished reading it, wondering about the motivations behind many of the choices I had made in my own life. This was clearly the author's intention, to make her readers reflect about their own lives. Even if their own personal experiences are different to the main character's experiences, I doubt any reader would not be able to find something in Lucia's unflinching commentary that did not resonate personally for them. It is a must read for anyone interested in making sense of life!
