A review by sophiemlpink
The Shining Girls by Lauren Beukes

Did not finish book. Stopped at 50%.
This has a fantastic premise with terrible execution. The pieces are there, the author just forgot to assemble them in any semblance of order. The murders are torture porn and the obvious metaphor for patriarchal society corroding intelligent women’s potential for changing the world just isn’t there.
