A review by nglofile
I Am Margaret Moore by Hannah Capin

2.0

2.5 stars, if I credit the lyricism of the narrative performance. Sadly, though, this did not deliver what I'd hoped. [b:Foul Is Fair|42595554|Foul Is Fair|Hannah Capin|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1558541437l/42595554._SY75_.jpg|66290359] was a book that unnerved and enthralled, and I was ready to cross into darkness with an encore. I am not frightened off by invocations of Emily Dickinson nor timelines that loop like cursive exercises. Teasers of disappearing characters with frame-changing revelations beckoned, but both of those proved skewed characterizations. This was...expected, even so familiar as to be tired, and that is the last experience I anticipated from a storyteller who thrills to the subversive.

audiobook note: The more I reflect, the more I'm certain I would have abandoned the tale were it not for Caitlin Davies' full-effort performance.
