A Study in Drowning by Ava Reid

dark emotional mysterious medium-paced

5.0

Wow. What a beautiful story that will haunt my mind for a while. The crumbling gothic manor created such an eerie atmosphere. I loved the rain and sea imagery, which made the two seem vengeful and alive. 

This novel tackles a lot. The discussion of authorship and ownership, sexism in academia, and the author/reader relationship immediately drew me in. I loved how raw, emotional, and empowering this book was.
