Ich. Darf. Nicht. Schlafen. by S.J. Watson
dark
emotional
tense
slow-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? Plot
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
4.0
- Sort of a diary format, but not really? Makes you empathise with the protagonist, since the reader is in the same position as her
- Very interesting concept for sure! And pretty well done from a layman's perspective
- Mostly slow burn except for the last ~30 pages, maybe a smoother transition would have been cool
- Didn't even CONSIDER the ending until pretty late
Graphic: Grief, Dementia, Physical abuse, Domestic abuse, and Gaslighting
Moderate: Injury/Injury detail, Medical content, Forced institutionalization, Rape, and Sexual assault
Minor: Blood, Miscarriage, Pregnancy, Death, Car accident, and Fire/Fire injury
