A review by prettyflyforascienceguy
Mrs Death Misses Death by Salena Godden
4.75
I saw some reviews say they found this book repetitive or pretentious, but I didn’t. I found that every repetition had purpose and beauty. I loved the writing style. To be fair, I did listen to the audiobook (read by the author, highly recommend), so maybe that helped cut down on the “edgy pretentiousness” that some people got from reading it.
Overall, I found this book to be a gorgeous study of grief and mental health. It was so thought provoking for me. I completely got lost in the world. This has been my favorite book of 2024 so far. I think I would appreciate some of the nuance more if I had experienced heavy grief in my life, but I am lucky and happy that some of the depth of the subject was lost on me.
