The Surface Breaks by Louise O'Neill

3.0

I was disappointed with this book because I was so excited to read it and expecting a lot from it, and within the first few chapters I just thought, oh. The whole story just reads like fanfiction, and there were so many typos and grammar mistakes that I definitely felt like I was just reading a fic on AO3. I feel like all the attention went into creating the cover and designing the book and none of the attention went into the story. But I didn’t hate it! It got better towards the end, and I started to like it about halfway through. I loved the feminist interpretation and I liked the author’s spin on it. I was just a little let down.
