A review by jujelly
Uncharted Waters by Sally Hepworth
3.0
have i already mentioned that i hate feeling conflicted about books? it's so much easier when you just simply like or dislike it, but a mix of both is just awfully annoying to decipher.
the fact is following: i hate ella's decision of having an affair with chloe. i hate that ella thinks she can right his wrong by doing a wrong herself, i hate that ella excuses infidelity so easily after she felt so crushed by finding out mac cheated on her first. i hate how easily she just threw it all away.
on the other end, i'm highly amused and entertained by the fact that both of them just get back together normally at the end: ella by wanting to keep this a secret, and mac by being scared of snitching on himself. it's funny that, in a way, this has brought them closer together.
it reminded me a little bit of chloe - not entirely the same, but i can definitely see the influences gotten from it.
ugh, i hate it and at the same time it was interesting to read. take me away. i hate having to decide on a feeling like that (ノ_<。)
