I Who Have Never Known Men by Jacqueline Harpman

challenging dark mysterious reflective slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? N/A
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

I’m never able to find the words to describe books like this one. Stories are sparse on the surface but able to cut through to essential questions of humanity that I often forget to ponder mostly because they’re hard to word without sounding excessively vague and pretentious - what does it mean to be human? I love that this book is a mystery without an answer that also tries to answer so many questions. Hannah and MB pls read!!!!!
