The Girl Below - Bianca Zander

Did you ever start reading a book and thought, "I don't like this character" but kept reading to see if it got any better?  Well this one didn't.  It's a story about a self-indulgent, whining, wimpy, poor-me 30 something with flashbacks to falling into a air-raid shelter before being pulled out by her father.  She keeps screwing up her life; drink, drugs, men, insomnia.  Yes, she's depressed, I get it, but she does nothing to help it.  The reader's guide reveals its partly auto-biographical so there's a real person walking around.  A wasted read, don't bother.
