A review by paulineerika
Prime Meridian by Silvia Moreno-Garcia

hopeful sad medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated

3.5

The rare Silvia Moreno-Garcia story that just doesn't quite do it for me. The writing is excellent, as always, and she weaves so much into a short novella. It's a story about losing your dreams and who you thought you would be and clinging so desperately to that one hope of escape. It's compelling in a lot of ways, but ultimately a little too bleak and too short for me to enjoy it as much as I've enjoyed her other works.
