Normal Women by Ainslie Hogarth

Originally picked this up in January and picked up again yesterday. I realised why I hadn’t gone back to it.


I’m not sure where the plot was going and I just didn’t like the MC enough to carry on. Felt like a fever dream. 

When a book makes you fall asleep it’s time to quit.

"A whole village, Dani realized then, in the cozy dark of the parked van, in one normal woman." 
But also sooooo unhinged! 
Ainslie Hogarth speaks to my soul in everything she writes.
