bailedDNF at 100 pages
100 pages of the torture and degradation of a young girl by a monstrous older brother is enough. It‘s explicit and brutal and partly told from the perspective of the brother and I can‘t stand to be in his head any longer. I am sure that eventually the torture of the young girl will stop and that she will overcome and her brother will be defeated but I just can‘t get there. Heard great things about this book but it‘s not for me.
Here‘s a little game of “Spot the Disturbing Title Juxtaposition” for you. Discovered this on the Honesty Bookshop shelves outside Hay Castle (sadly closed and completely covered in scaffolding) during my recent Hay-on-Wye trip. 😳😧😱😖
pickAn emotional rollercoaster of a book, you might not like the emotions but one of the best books I've read, in my opinion it's not a well known book outside of book clubs etc. Unfortunately. I can't recommend it enough.
