My Absolute Darling by Gabriel Tallent
3.0
This book is HEAVY. Probably one of the hardest books I’ve ever read subject matter wise, and I’m not entirely sure that it had a purpose other than to disgust me. The writing in this book is gorgeous. Tallent really has a way with words and I enjoyed quite a few of the characters. Turtle despite her unlikeability had me rooting for her by the end. This book is atmospheric and highly descriptive. For me this book is unnecessary. I found the abuse, violence, and language to be just for the sake of the story, but as far as walking away from a book feeling educated or like I gained something I’m going to unfortunately say that was a big NO.
Writing of this book is a win but overall this book is disgusting and unnecessary. 3/5 from me because of the writing but unless you are game for consistent abuse, and violence. I’d pass on this. I cannot recommend this book on good faith.
