Book Review of Waiting: The True Confessions of a Waitress

Waiting: The True Confessions of a Waitress
reviewed on + 12 more book reviews


Waiting was, for the most part, a quick, engaging read. Ginsberg is a street-smart cookie, with a strong sense of self and without a trace of self-pity. I felt her editors could have done a better job- the anecdote interrupted by a trip down memory lane was way overdone, and there was some repetition that bored me. So, bottom line, it was interesting enough to finish, but not compelling enough for a wholehearted recommendation.
