The Book of Flora by Meg Elison
3.75
dark reflective tense

This entire series is such a hidden gem.

Throughout the series, all the characters have such distinct voices and I'm amazed that Elison has pulled it off. It cannot be easy to do. That being said, I think this was my least favourite of the three, simply because reading this felt like being thrown around from place to place and from gender issue to gender issue. You get a taste in the second book, but it's so full on in this one. Don't get me wrong - it was done extremely well and this book offers so much to discuss and think about, but it left me exhusted and in an existential crisis.
