A review by redwavereads
Findings by Kathleen Jamie

2.0

There simply wasn’t any narrative in this to follow and the writing didn’t speak to me. There is so much prosaic fluff about ordinary things in this. It felt like Jamie sometimes just tried to make the mundanest things sound like significant experiences by loading them with atmospheric words. Didn’t work for me. And the jumps were harsh at times. I felt lost, didn’t know why I was reading the part at that specific time. Couldn’t see the connection. I missed a narrative structure or some underlying principle - hell, some introductory words at the beginning of the chapter would have helped this book imo.

Obviously there are many people who adore this, so don’t just take my word for it.
