A review by rdlevitt
Everything Under by Daisy Johnson

3.0

Interesting, not bad but not great. The pacing was very start-and-stop. Normally I like the idea of jumping around to different viewpoints and points in time, but in some instances it totally broke down the momentum of the storytelling. It's a modern retelling of Oedipus, and you know that the "big reveal" of the prophecy is coming. But when it is finally spoken out loud, I found it somewhat anticlimactic? All in all, an impressive and creative book but I felt more compelled to finish it rather than eager to finish it.
