THE UNWORTHY is my first foray into Agustina's full-length works (her short story collection was great!) and, coming in at 175 pages, I think it ultimately left me wanting so much more.

Dripping with mystery and despair, we get a hint at what the world of THE UNWORTHY is - it's bleak y'all 😬 - and the story being fully told in journal entries added an urgency to a plot that did seem to meander a good amount for the first half.

HOWEVER, that second half?! SUCKED ME IN 

The tragic love story and the unraveling of our main character's lead-up to joining the Sacred Sisterhood added so much depth to the story and I really just wanted more more more!

Early reviews for this one have been quite divisive and I can see why, but the latter half really altered my feelings on this one!

Thank you Scribner for the ARC for review - out March 4!
