South and West: From a Notebook by Joan Didion

4.0

---

This was both my first Joan Didion novel and first memoir novel. I thoroughly enjoyed the adventure Joan took me on during her road trip around the South. I loved all the details she wrote and the random conversations that were included. From elevator conversations to beauty shop discussions, this book offered a variety of different people who each have interesting, and sometimes comical, characteristics. South and West was a joy to read and made me feel like I was experiencing life in 1970 for the very first time!
