In Wonder Spot Sophie Applebaum is the main character and we meet her as a teenager at her cousins bat mitzvah.  Throughout her teenage years into her young professional life her struggle to find who she is and what she is meant to do is vivid.  As well as her search (and disappointments) when looking for a life partner.

Sophie leads a life that can be seen as a fairly normal life…it’s just that coming from her the things that happen are more amusing, heartbreaking, more vivid.  Throughout the book I found myself wanting her to find a job she loves, a man that she loves who loves her back.  I wanted her to find happiness.  Melissa Bank has a gift  and I look forward to reading her future books.
