A review by lizzyp1970
Lady Oracle by Margaret Atwood

3.0

Not my favorite book but interesting enough to suck me in. A young woman who having grown up overweight and constantly reminded of the problem by her mother, receives an inheritance from her favorite aunt which comes with strings attached- lose the weight. To escape he rather dysfunctional home life she does lose the weight and moves away from home. Ends up writing gothic romances to support herself and along the way meets and becomes involved with a few strange male characters. In order to get out of one of her relationships she ends of faking her death with some help of some friends. This in itself backfires in the end. An ok story.
