The Drowning Kind by Jennifer McMahon
Did not finish book. Stopped at 46%.
The book was a bit plodding and often fell into the trap of "telling" and not "showing." While the premise is interesting, I feel the author relied too much on creating an air of eeriness and suspense that went on too long and devolved into repetitive scenes that seemed to serve no other purpose than elongating the time between the beginning of the book and it's resolution.
Graphic: Death, Death of parent, Grief, Schizophrenia/Psychosis , and Toxic relationship
Moderate: Addiction, Drug use, Infertility, Injury/Injury detail, and Self harm
Minor: Abandonment and Child death
