Lilies of the Bowery
I found this book super boring. The first person POV kept us almost solidly inside the protagonist's head with, in my opinion, not enough dialogue to avoid it being a whole lot of telling and not much showing. The narration was filled with so many mundane descriptions that I lost all interest in what was supposed to be happening with the characters. I think there was a lot of potential for a great story but so much time was spent on discussing Joan's inability to walk without falling down and God that the more interesting aspects of the book were left unexplored. I can't really recommend it.
