A review by karenmsecrest
Fates and Furies by Lauren Groff

dark tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
The writing: lyrical. The story: depressing. Is this an allegorical Greek saga or a Shakespearean tragedy? I’m not sure. [Both?]

This is a book for readers who love Greek tragedies, unlikable characters, and twists. [It is especially enjoyable for those who appreciate parenthetical narration.]
