malieka 's review for:

The Pisces by Melissa Broder
4.5
dark emotional funny reflective sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I fucking loved this book. Loved the writing. Absolutely hilarious and heartbreaking. I don’t want to relate to Lucy but I do. I see her. A human’s need to be loved and chosen is so powerful it feels like it can swallow you whole. How can we live any life and know it will never ever be enough?  

-.5 stars because I feel like there are some loose ends and questions I wish would’ve been addressed. Also TW animal cruelty.
