A review by lmshearer
White Oleander by Janet Fitch

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

3.0

The language of this book is alluring, but the plot and its characters became more and more tedious as the story went along. Editing it down by 100 pages would have helped pace the book as well.
