Daddy by Emma Cline
5.0
dark reflective tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

after finishing this book i just felt so intuitively that i should give it five stars. i am somehow struggling to articulate why.

all of these stories left me feeling so empty, and for some people that might be a serious turn off, but i personally love reading books like this despite what that might say about me as a person.

cline’s writing is so accessible and subtle yet so rich at the same time. los angeles and a/s/l were my favourite short stories.
