A review by towoyg
Bluets by Maggie Nelson

reflective sad medium-paced

2.5

Don't know how to feel about this one. I tore through this book in just a couple of sittings, while still questioning whether or not I actually liked it. I appreciated what Nelson was trying to get at but I don't think her message ever truly "got" there. Yes a subtle life lesson buried within scattered anecdotes is very poignant or whatever but it all blurred together for me by the end. I just wish some of the writing was stronger and/or dug a bit deeper.
I don't think it was terrible either, read if you just had a bad breakup maybe, you might like it then.
