A review by inkednovella
In the House Upon the Dirt Between the Lake and the Woods by Matt Bell

1.5

I think this book was trying too hard. lots of words leading to nothing. Writer decided not to have any conversations within the book and I think that and other stylistic choices ruined this book. I should know by now never to read a book written by a man where the only two other characters are referred to as “wife” and “foundling/child.” I get it, man has wife and is such a good man for putting up with his wife’s mere existence while also destroying her body by forcing miscarriage after miscarriage
