Find Layla by Meg Elison
4.0
So good. Compelling and heartbreaking, the book is hard to put down. I stayed up way too late reading - and my book never slipped down onto my chest as I drifted off, as so often happens with reading at night. I had to force myself to put it down, and I finished it in two sittings.
Hard to put a finger on it exactly - the protagonist is clearly a sympathetic character, living through something terrible. It's hard to imagine - and hard to turn away. I think I read it too fast to really question how realistic all of her choices were - but at no point did I want to roll my eyes, or even think to myself "really?"
Just a fast, emotionally compelling read.
