badlydoneemma 's review for:
The Mad Women's Ball
by Victoria Mas
fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
Plot
Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
Complicated
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Complicated
Has laudable moments but Mas seems unable to let her powerful descriptions or characters speak for themselves, and instead has her omniscient narrator pop in often to thrust the book's feminist messages in your face with all the subtlety of a sledgehammer.
