A review by booklectic
Gather the Daughters by Jennie Melamed
Did not finish book.
I dont know, i just cant go on any longer- what the point of this book? I dont understand. I'm normally ok with abuse/assaults/gore in the books [only if it leads somewhere, a precursor of an event, SOMETHING] but there's a lot of it in this one- and none of it leads anywhere.
its like `yo this this thing happened`
"allright what's gonna happen next? what are the characters gonna do about it?"
`well its gonna happen again, and uH the character(s) are loving the abuse and they wont do anything about it`
The plot goes nowhere. Its just a book about very bad people and the victims not knowing that they are a victim. Just, no. nope.
Also, I dont understand the fixation with mud, mosquitos and letting ut children for an entire summer to act savagely. This book confused me a lot. It has been more than 24h since i completed it and I'm still thinking about it. [Frustrated is the more appropriate emotion here].
