Our Wives Under the Sea by Julia Armfield
5.0
emotional mysterious reflective tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I fell in love with this book from the first page, and honestly the first line. This is beautifully written and captures a sapphic relationship realistically in gorgeous, heartbreaking prose. I went into this 90% blind and honestly would recommend the same for others.

This isn’t a book for those who need an action forward plot. This is about characters, relationships and love. Truly a book I’ll be rereading.
