The Burning Girl by Claire Messud
3.0
emotional mysterious sad tense
Diverse cast of characters: No

Nice prose and it’s interesting to read this story from one unreliable perspective. The characters are intriguing and feel like real people, but because of the drabble-y nature of the book it never feels like we know them super well. We also never become immersed in any one narrative. The story overall is just a bit too disconnected/ungrounded for me.
