A review by aberator
Dear Edna Sloane by Amy Shearn
emotional
reflective
sad
slow-paced
2.75
With thanks to Net Galley for the Advanced Reader Copy for review.
This one rates solidly at a 2.75 to 3 overall stars for me. A read you love on its surface, but struggle to like behind the scenes.
At times I felt like I was being forced to watch a manuscript reading by Amy Sherman Palladino after working a 12 hour shift with no remote sense left of why so many words were being used to convey a feeling or capture an essence - and an echoing thought of where is this going?
As the quote goes, this book truly gives “an infinity of traces without leaving an inventory”.
