The Lying Life of Adults by Elena Ferrante
4.0
challenging dark reflective medium-paced

Ferrante can seriously write. This book really compels you to keep reading, even when the experience is not pleasant. There’s a lot to say about girlhood and adolescence here, treated with complexity not often given to girls. But the ending is terrible.
