sandro_reads 's review for:

Hurricane Season by Fernanda Melchor
3.25
challenging dark slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Hurricane Season is short but dense - long run-on sentences, no paragraphs, no quotation marks - an assault to the senses - brutal, vulgar - much like what the women in this Mexican town face at the hands of men.

Unfortunately, I admire the idea of this book much more than I enjoyed reading it.
