A review by emmacatereads
The Book of Atrix Wolfe by Patricia A. McKillip

1.0

I HATE that I’m rating a McKillip so low. I feel so sad. But this book really didn’t do it for me. It was utterly gorgeous, lyrical, and poignant, much like her other books. It also made very little sense to me. There’s a line between poetic and nonsensical and I think this books crossed it just a few too many times for me personally. Honestly my favorite chapters were the ones with Saro in the kitchen, and the descriptions of the food and the daily goings-on. I didn’t much care for what was going on with Talis and Atrix for most of the book.
