mysterious
reflective
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
Character
Strong character development:
Complicated
Loveable characters:
No
Diverse cast of characters:
Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
What I liked:
-LGBTQ representation.
-Domestic abuse representation.
-The writing.
I thought the prose within this short story was fantastic. I had really no complaints there. I also enjoyed the LGBTQ characters and the domestic abuse representation. Since I enjoyed the writing, I know I would like to give another book from this author a try in the future.
Unfortunately I struggled with this book. Although it was short, it felt long to me. I couldn't find myself immersed within this story and I was honestly confused for much of it. It felt like a fever dream. Things sort of came together at the end, but I also was left wondering, "What did I just read?" Maybe this was just a case of me not fully understanding the story and less on the author, but nonetheless, that's how it left me feeling.
While I enjoyed the representation, I was disappointed to find myself unable to connect with any of the characters. I think being that this book was so short, there wasn't much character development and I found the characters unlikeable.
Thank you to Edelweiss and the publisher for the arc. All opinions are my own.
