It has been a long time since I disliked a book this much. There was a moment on Sunday when the urge to throw it across the room and be done with it forever was so strong I had to clench my hands around the spine to keep myself from doing it. This was made more imperative by the fact that I was standing outside in a bus terminal at the time, and this was a library book.

Moore's writing is perfect. Perfect. So much so that I forgive her the occasional random meanderings in the story.
This tryhard, awful book is offensive on a lot of different levels, most of all that it's clashingly awkward. That it was shortlisted for awards and best-of lists makes me think there were political sympathies at play or something, because it's a bad, bad book.
