A review by mollyjanewrites
Democracy by Joan Didion

4.0

Real things I said after I closed this book.

"Oof."
"I think I'm sad."
"Am I supposed to ask why?" - the fiancee asked.
"I don't think I know why."

This was a love story, and also a war story, and also a story of the life of Inez Victor, and also a story of six months, and one day, and nothing. And it was really beautiful.
