Starting from Here: A Novel Natsu Hyuuga The Friday Afternoon Club isA Midwestern girl balances her dreams of becoming a dancer with the complications of growing up on her own, far from her working class family, in this stirring, stunning novel about the desire for a certain kind of life and the quest to find it (Meg Wolitzer). The sharp physicality of Paula Saunderss writing hooked me; it was utterly engrossing to feel chills, hunger and lust through the body of this young dancer.Miranda July, New York Times
