theautumngurl 's review for:
Mrs Gulliver
by Valerie Martin
lighthearted
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
Character
Strong character development:
No
Loveable characters:
N/A
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
I was unsure at first.
The blurb really drew me in and after a third I wondered about a potential power imbalance between the two central characters.
After asking myself, “was is the point here?”, I took a moment to chastise myself and remember that not every single book must be driven by a plot and that perhaps this is just Mrs Gulliver telling me about when she meet Carità. The second I accepted this, the book got more enjoyable.
Nothing really to gain through reading this but it was a fine little story with what I thought was a happy ending. 3/5
