Lady Macbeth by Ava Reid

slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Diverse cast of characters? No

2.5

I thought a book about Lady Macbeth would be an engaging exploration about a complicated woman who is clever and challenging. This book did not even give an interesting female lead let alone a compelling narrative. It felt very basic and weirdly antagonistic about Scotland. 

Prose was nice but pretty repetitive in the metaphors. Disappointed and wouldn’t recommend.
