Out of the Easy

I have mixed feelings about this book. I did quite enjoy it, but I'm not really sure what the point of it was. The main story arc was clear, but I feel like it didn't really take up much of the book—it was just sprinkled throughout the novel. Some of the characters were clearly fleshed out and developed, Jesse and Willie were my obvious favorites. However, there were some other characters that I couldn't connect to at all, Charlie being an example. The book wasn't really plot driven and that made it a slow read. I felt like I was just reading about Josie's life and that there wasn't much of a point to it.
