City of Girls by Elizabeth Gilbert

City of Girls is about Vivian Morris, told in firsthand account by Vivian herself. The story starts with Vivian addressing a woman who has written her to find out what she had meant to her father. After a long but entertaining and intriguing life story, her moving to New York twice, her sexual escapades, her girl crush on Celia, the death of her brother, and finally finding love with a man whom she never touched, we find out the relationship between this woman’s father and Vivian. 

This was a charming story: endearing, insightful, and very well told. I listened to this in audio and the narrator, Blair Brown, did an absolute fantastic job telling this tale! It didn't disappoint.
