Unfortunately I've been reading these backwards - having read this semi-fictional account of "Dolly Wilde" before reading Moran's other books, which are more transparently about herself. The problem here is that some of the jokes are repeated - which feels kind of strange. However - I found this novel more poignant and more funny than the previous two books - perhaps the distance between Moran and the character allowed it to feel more authentic/less self conscious? Anyways - I laughed out loud many many times at this book, and many different parts felt true and thought-provoking, almost cathartic. Wish the end hadn't been wrapped up so quickly - but overall, love the voice of this book, a quick and fun (but not stupid) read.
