twiggwit 's review for:

Absolution by Jeff VanderMeer
2.75
adventurous dark medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I love the Southern Reach Series, however, Absolution felt like a cop out from VanderMeer.The first half of the book was great but the end was simply proof that men can’t write books without hyper sexualizing everything. The last half of the book was annoying to read and not at all enjoyable, it was mostly word jumble and did not add to the overall story line. It left me feeling disappointed.
