Dead Girls by Selva Almada

challenging dark emotional reflective slow-paced

4.0

the author has wonderful insights into the murderers she is writing about and supplements the stories with personal antidotes and her experiences from writing. you get a real understanding of the experiences of these women and how prevalent violence against women and feminicide is. This could have very easily been exploitive but it doesn't read that way, the other is reflective and well informed. the story isn't just about the victims but also herself and her own life growing up affected by the constant stories of dead girls.
