- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
3.0
Overall a kind of dull book to be honest. It's reflective and slow-paced, but it's more so that it doesn't dwell within the characters all that much when it isn't directly telling you about them. Emily has a temper, Maisie is kind, Nell is the baby, and that's really all I can say about them. I would've probably quit it if Meryl Streep hadn't been the narrator tbh
Graphic: Forced institutionalization and Death
