A review by maddyisnotilliterate
Alias Grace by Margaret Atwood

dark informative mysterious reflective tense slow-paced

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

book took far too long for me to complete, and yet, it still slayed a bit.
