Fates and Furies by Lauren Groff

1.0

Someone needs to tell this author that every single sentence does not need to be flowery. An editor maybe???? And, not to mention, how many sentence fragments can one book have??? You can't disguise this as poetic. It was terrible.
If I had to read one more word comma word comma word disguised as a sentence... 🤦
It was not profound. It was not deep. It was a so so story about two people who thought way too highly of themselves and a wife who kept secrets.
And honestly it was weird. And indulgent. And the wordy wordy poetry deep bullshit with the pedestrian plot was like putting lipstick on a pig. But like gaudy lipstick.
One of the worst books I've ever read.
I've never read anything so pretentious.
