A review by will_meringue
Mrs March by Virginia Feito

3.0

I picked this up at a secondhand bookshop as I needed something to read on my flight home and it was recommended on the What Page are you On? podcast. My fault for not checking the content warnings but
the rape references were much more graphic and frequent than I was expecting, which goes somehow to explaining my bad feelings towards the book - I've tried not to let that reflect the rating too much.
 

Compelling at first, with a strong sense of voice, but grew tedious and repetitive over the course of the book. I think this story would have worked better as a novella, with a tighter structure to make the middle section pacier and the ending less abrupt.
