kah296 's review for:

Wayward by Dana Spiotta
2.0
reflective sad tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I didn’t love it. It felt a little erratic while also being slow. The characters jumped from one problem to the next with little resolution, though that may have been a stylistic choice to reflect the lack of control felt with middle age? Don’t know. I liked reading about Syracuse though, and I appreciated the complicated framing of current issues.
