A review by sherri_berri
Lapvona by Ottessa Moshfegh

Did not finish book. Stopped at 15%.
Disliked the writing style (too much tell, not enought show for me) and found the child sexual descriptions & abuse too disturbing. Im unsure if the plot would have developed, but these first 46 pages (i.e. where I DNFed) felt as if purely for shock value. I went into this book expecting it to be weird, but was disappointed with being served disgusting scene after disgusting scene without any plot or satisfactory characterisations.
