My Dark Vanessa by Kate Elizabeth Russell

challenging dark reflective sad tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

This is a jumble of triggering and traumatic themes/events.  It forces you to reflect on things that are quite uncomfortable and question the nature of abuse, consent, rape, and even love and self-identity.  I was captivated throughout but this is not for the faint hearted.
