My Absolute Darling by Gabriel Tallent

challenging dark sad tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

I need to go and sit in the sun for a while after reading this…

4* for the writing, characterisation and world building but 1* for enjoyability based on the subject matter (check tw’s) and bizarre choice of language at times (iykyk)
