dark emotional slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character

4.0

i loved this collection of vignettes, from different points in the main character’s life. honestly, i had to keep reminding myself that this is fiction, since it really read like a memoir, given how the vivid the depiction of events was. even though i felt like i really got to know the character by the end of the book, i just wish the account itself felt more complete.
