A review by hrtaylor95
The Lightness by Emily Temple

4.0

I love books that aim to be about religion but are actually about repressed female desire.

One facet of this striking novel that still sits with me is the breaking of the 4th wall throughout. It haunts and lingers in me. The young women in the story are as lost as they are strong, and the unreliable narrator had me on the edge of my seat throughout.
