A review by laura_liisa
The Year of Ice by Brian Malloy
1.0
CW: homophobia, sexual assault, misogyny, ableism, racism, fatphobia, physical assault...etc?
I have quite some thoughts about this book, but currently, I'm just stuck wondering if a 1,5 rating is more 1 star or 2 stars. I've gone with 2 stars for now, because I enjoyed the book at times and thought there were some good bits to it, but at the same time the characters mostly sucked and there was so much bs + at least 2 instances of sexual assault by the main character, so, you know, some mixed feelings there. :)
Edit: Gone back and changed it to 1 star. Again, enjoyed it at times and it was easy to get through, but overall I disliked the MC and the way the author glossed over some serious bullshit.
