The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath

dark emotional reflective sad medium-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? Yes

4.5

Plath’s words still ring true to this day, 60 years later. The struggles of girlhood and mental health, somehow taken too seriously and not seriously enough.
