Eynhallow by Tim McGregor
5.0
I’ve read some good books lately, but it’s been a while since I’ve gotten excited, like really excited over a read. What do you think you’re gonna get when you pick up this novel? This is 178 pages of pure magic. I need more, so much more!
Agnes, oh dear Agnes. This is really her story, even if it’s a retelling. What a human to experience. It takes a LOT to make me shed a tear, and it happened thrice! This woman…you feel her struggles, her grief and the weight on her shoulders. You also feel the love she has for her children and her dearest friend. The events that unfold in this story will pull hard and leave you reeling. It is amazing what a person can endure.
I can also finally brag that I learned a hand full of new words! It’s been ages!! A thought provoking, educational read that is also insanely entertaining!
This may be a very personal opinion, but Tim McGregor can write a woman’s perspective beautifully.
There are a few triggers for this read: infant death, maternal death, domestic abuse.
