ratcousin 's review for:

The Regrets by Amy Bonnaffons

2.5

---

ok so this book is fine. I really enjoyed the beginning, was kind of bored by the end, but the formatting of the made the book quite easy to keep reading. The characters were interesting until they weren't, and that kind of encapsulates everything in this book. The speculative elements introduced in the beginning are quite interesting, but then we kind of just stop finding out anything about that. Also, there's a moment where one of the main characters is uncomfortably flippant about female genital mutation and it was very much in poor taste, even if the point of it was to make the character seem like a jerk. Very odd book. Kind of half baked.
