A review by christina_h
Blood Orange by Harriet Tyce

Did not finish book. Stopped at 10%.
Just an annoying main character and a pathetic excuse for a human being. she is not the badass woman I was promised, she begs for attention from a man who is self-absorbed and ignorant and while she doesn't want to hurt her family life she thinks that offering to help the dishes is enough to somehow piece her relationship back at home all the while neglecting her daughter. Not to mention she does some disgusting things in the book that just demeans the character even more for me. For those who enjoy realistic contemporary accounts, this could be for you but unfortunately, while i understand the struggle, I just couldn't relate to her choices in life as it was her choices that she made that affected her life.
