A review by margocandela
Slammerkin by Emma Donoghue

4.0

I have no idea why I picked Slammerkin up but I do know it was in preparation for a plane ride and beach vacation where all I planned to do was read, read, read. I used to read tons of romance novels as a teen and it was so jarring to read something so dark, gritty and so not nice about the age in which most of those stories were set. Slammerkin is not a feel good story which makes it all the better.
