Little Sister by Barbara Gowdy
mysterious
fast-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
3.0
This book had such a strong premise, but the execution just wasn't quite there. I loved the glimpses into Rose's past and Ava, but even still it felt underdeveloped at times. This was a pretty short book, so I wonder if another 50 pages would have allowed things to be a bit more fleshed out.
