A review by nicolelavelle
Hold Still by Lynn Steger Strong

medium-paced

2.0

i feel like there needs to be a moratorium on female protagonists being english professors having midlife problems. would otherwise be a good book i’m just very tired of this point of view. it feels way too MFA. like i get “write what you know” but please no more new york city hetero-marital strife. this eclipsed the rest of the book’s merits for me.
