All the Ugly and Wonderful Things, by Bryn Greenwood, was, on the surface, a disturbing story about a young girl and the man who basically raises her because her parents are abusive meth addicts. However, it was much more than that, and, a completely addictive read that I plowed through in a day. It was intensely readable and fascinating. All the hype about this one was deserved. I’d grab it if you are looking for something page-turning.
