Query: Thank God I Have a Car

I got this book from our office "library," where people leave off books they've finished for others to pick up. Opening it to the middle and scanning a few sentences, I thought it would be interesting. And it was, for a while. It's about the author and her retarded sister, who rides the buses in her city all day, every day. The author is trying to discover her sister by riding the bus with her. It holds up for about half the book, but after a while you realize the sister is lazy, obnoxious, and socially indifferent. She gets really tiresome after a while, and therefore, unfortunately, so does the book. I ended up being much more interested in the vignettes from the sisters' past life experience, especially about their mother. Now that would be a story worth writing--and reading. Better luck next time, author.
