The Roxy Letters

In a style similar to Bridget Jones' Diary, this book is about Roxy, a young artist who is trying to make ends meet, find the right guy, and cope with her low-paying job at a Whole Foods deli counter. The book is written as a series of letters to her ex-boyfriend, but ends up reading much like a diary. Roxy has a LOT of misfortunes that are in turn laughable, cringeworthy, embarrassing, and more. She has a good heart but has trouble finding her place in her world. I had trouble getting into the book (I think because the letter format threw me for a bit), but having finished it, I can see the value in it's messages about the value of friendships, relationships, believing in yourself, and taking things in stride.
