Not Without Laughter is one of those strange novels that doesn't seem to do all that much or say much, but it still completely captured my attention. This could perhaps be the result of my connection to the story, a child growing up in Kansas, near the same location this story takes place, although Sandy's experience is vastly different from my own. Some parts of the story picked up the pace considerably, but for the most part, this is simply the meandering tale of a child finding his place in the world.

This “review” is part of a series in which I quickly scribble a few of the thoughts I had regarding a book I read in the first half of 2021 during a time when I let my reviews get very behind.
