katharina90 's review for:

Go as a River by Shelley Read

3.0

emotional reflective sad slow-paced

Strong character development: Yes

Loveable characters: Complicated

Diverse cast of characters: Complicated

---

A slow, sad, reflective book with interesting themes, some of which I wish had been explored more (or differently). Some elements of the story felt rushed or underdeveloped. At times it also just dragged.
