#19: Smashed

I just finished Smashed:  Story of Drunken Girlhood by Koren Zailckas.  Let's just say I'm on a role for crappy books.

 I thought this book might be entertaining or have some eye opening story about drinking, but it was just boring and whiny.  Her main reason for drinking was boredom.  At the end of the book, I don't feel like she was very sorry for her alcohol abuse.  It's almost like she was proud of having this drunk bond with so many underage drinking teenagers.  I felt she was full of self pity, but I didn't really feel sorry for her.

Maybe it's the author, or the fact that I've never been drunk, or some other reason, but I just didn't like this book at all.
