apricotjoy 's review for:

The Wren, The Wren by Anne Enright
4.0
emotional funny reflective sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Listened to this on audiobook which was really lovely. This was a slow burn for me but I grew to really enjoy it - each character had a distinct voice,  and the ending felt real and satisfying. Some beautiful turns of phrase too! (The only downside of an audiobook is you can't highlight or bookmark your favourite parts!)
