The Catch by Yrsa Daley-Ward

3.5

challenging dark emotional mysterious reflective sad medium-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Plot

Strong character development: Complicated

Loveable characters: No

Diverse cast of characters: Yes

Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

I read this in 7 hours and it felt like it. I was going through so many emotions that I had to put the book down multiple times. Taking small breaks while staring out in the distance. I will not go into the characters or the plot. What I need to talk about is the unreliability of everything. Had me going a bit crazy. Half the time I didn’t have a clue what was going on. I was feeling every other emotion other than happiness. The anger to the character, plot and even author. I’m not mad about the book is not bad. I had such a hard time going through it. Feeling like a damned fever dream, you think it’s over and done but no you’re still dreaming. I need people to pick the book up, tell me what they think and have a discussion on my ideas lol. I would love to read more by this author.

Thanks to NetGalley and W. W. Norton & Company I received a ARC for an honest review !
