Taboo by Kim Scott
4.5
challenging dark emotional mysterious reflective medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Taboo should be considered a modern classic of Australian literature. Difficult to read in parts, it's a thorny book which is astoundingly written by Kim Scott, who's work I desperately need to look more into. Heed the trigger warnings because this book can be a lot, but it's so worth it.
