A review by bella_cavicchi
You'd Be Home Now by Kathleen Glasgow

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

5.0

In classic Glasgow fashion, this was deeply moving, 'quiet' in the sense that its themes weigh heavy and the drama lies in all that is not said. A sobering reminder, too, of how this country fails anyone struggling with addiction. I think it would be interesting to read in tandem with Heather Demetrios' LITTLE UNIVERSES. Recommend, for sure.

(Also it shout-outs theatre teachers and that is always a WIN in my book!!!)
