Tender Is the Flesh by Agustina Bazterrica

dark emotional sad tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

LOVED the ending to this book, even though it was a complete reversal of the character arc.
