A review by alicemorrison1029
Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov

challenging dark emotional tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character

5.0

i feel dirty giving this a 5 star review, but i also think that it deserves nothing less. it does it’s job perfectly; it makes you uncomfortable while still drawing you into the story, and is so very beautifully written. while there was a constant pit of disgust in my stomach, i enjoyed finding all the moments where the true nature of the “relationship” shone through HH’s unreliable narration.
