A review by anniefwrites
Our Wives Under the Sea by Julia Armfield

dark mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated

4.5

Even after finishing this book, I still feel like I’m wading through the depths of the ocean. It has the precision of a short story but the movement of a novel. The concluding image was so powerful, I think it will stay with me for a long time. This book is a feat of tone, transporting the reader to somewhere they’ve never imagined.
