Eight Girls Taking Pictures (2012) - Plot & Excerpts

I guess based on her previous book How to Make an American Quilt I expected more. Each chapter is the portrait of a different woman and how she got into photography. Now that sounds too cut and dried because it was more than that, with each character being developed with different life experiences. If you are interested in reading it, don't let my review stop you because you might react differently. I loved this book for very personal reasons, my father was a photographer and owned a photo business, my brother, a photographers gave it to me, I am a photographer and I own a cheaper version of the camera on the cover. Besides that, I loved the premise of taking 8 girls and connecting them each with a camera and with the first girl, a fictitious professional photographer of the early part of the 20th century. There is a thread there, but each story could stand on its own, eight short stories like 8 snapshots. I am rereading this one, I want to go back and follow the thread again, absorb more of the details, like going through pages of a photo album.
