The Furies by Natalie Haynes

3.0

I think Natalie Haynes is a great writer. That being said, I wish this book were a bit more concise. I really liked it, but found that some of the chapters dragged a bit. The book is about a young play director who starts teaching drama at a school for troubled youth after the death of her fiance. Mystery surrounds his death and a future foreshadowed event, and I liked how it all played out slowly. For a while, you don't really know the timeline of the narration. It definitely kept my interest, but I think a little more editing would have helped. I listened to the audio version and the narrator was pretty great at the different accents- English, American, and Scottish.
