How a Woman Becomes a Lake by Marjorie Celona

dark mysterious slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot

2.0

 This one was kind of a miss for me. I found that nothing happened in the first 70 pages and then so many of the remaining pages were devoted to Leo abusing or neglecting his kids. I know that it was actually a really small part of the book, but so little happened in other parts that it seemed like the only thing happening.

The idea was cool and I liked the intertwined plots, but this just wasn't a book for me.
