Self-Portrait with Boy by Rachel Lyon
4.0
Really interesting story. Not necessarily thought-provoking, but it was unique.
One of the things I liked the most was actually the writing style. The author doesn’t use quotations to discern between characters or mention who is speaking. It made me try to understand the characters a little deeper, so I’d be able to know who was speaking based off of their mannerisms and personality.
Wasn’t really a fan of the main character, mainly because of her interactions with her dad (his Christmas present to her, ugh she was so pretentious) and the scene with the rats in her apartment.
