My Absolute Darling by Gabriel Tallent

1.0

This book should come with a trigger warning - there is so much violence and rape that I felt sick and angry reading it. It's a teenage girl's story that is clearly written by a man that is tone deaf to the female experience. The author's experience with guns and the outdoors is apparent, but his beautifully-penned details of nature is not a big enough distraction from the excessive cruelty this book puts its protagonist and readers through.
