A beautiful novel that explores how, despite someone’s wrongdoings or faults, there is still a person inside who is deserving of love and a second chance at life. The art world was, in my opinion, excellently explored at a level that was digestible to someone who is not well-versed in that field. The characters are raw, tangible, and sometimes absolutely infuriating, but you cannot help but flip the page, eager to know where their lives will lead. No one character is the same, and I found myself equally invested in different aspects of each character's life. A new favorite on my shelf that did everything I want out of a literary fiction novel.
Graphic: Domestic abuse, Panic attacks/disorders, Physical abuse, Classism, Suicidal thoughts, and Toxic relationship

slow and contemplative, sirens & muses covers a year in the intersecting lives of four artists. each character's chapter provides just enough for the reader to remain interested in their lives, even outside of each other.
Moderate: Infidelity, Death of parent, Emotional abuse, Sexual assault, Terminal illness, and Toxic relationship
Minor: Dementia and Panic attacks/disorders
