Second Place by Rachel Cusk
4.25
challenging reflective medium-paced

Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: N/A
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I ended up thoroughly enjoying this book but had somewhat of a hard time when I first started it. The narrator can be unlikable at times but makes very thoughtful insights. This book is also just beautifully written. I look forward to reading another book by Cusk at some point.
