Kaleidoscope World was a bit hard for me to absorb.  It’s the story of Dahlia Kasper and her alcoholic mother (who displays the typical personality of the possessive and often childish alcoholic mother.)  Dahlia lives in a fantasy world, is obsessed with her favorite kaleidoscope.  She meets a cello player in Barcelona, has a ghost fantasy, and a vivid imagination.  Dahlia is definitely psychotic, but endearing. Is this a  psychological thriller?  I’m not so sure, but it was a good read.
