A review by sapphothebittersweet
In the Dream House by Carmen Maria Machado

dark emotional reflective sad medium-paced

4.5

By far one of the best memoirs I have ever read. Considering I just finished the book, it will take me a while to be able to formulate an actual review and process everything that I just read, but right now I am speechless. Please read this book if you haven't already especially if you yourself have experienced domestic violence within a same-sex relationship and wish to feel seen and heard. This book does a phenomenal job explaining the nuance between lesbophobia, homophobia, and the very real reality that anyone of any gender or sexuality can be abused or be abusive to others.
