Thank you to NetGalley and Headline for this ARC.
I would normally start a review by saying something about the plot, but I have no idea what the plot is.
This was too literary for me, too confusing and fragmented. It's basically a stream of consciousness by a woman called Hero.
I didn't like the writing style. I never knew whether we were in the past or the present, whether she was talking about herself or someone else or just generally what was going on. There's a lot of talk about what women have suffered throughout history and she tries to figure out how she feels about someone, but the story, if you can call it that, is open-ended.
Sorry but this wasn't for me. Mercifully, it's short.
