In the Garden of Spite by Camilla Bruce

2.0

This had the makings to be a good read, but it just wasn't. Perhaps if all the sections from Nellie's point of view didn't exist? Perhaps if Belle's sections didn't try too hard to present her as endearing or relatable at inopportune moments?

The only thing that brought this up from 1.5 stars was thinking about what this book would've read like from James Lee's perspective, and it still sickens me to say that for a number of reasons.
