Still Life by Sarah Winman
2.0
adventurous emotional informative reflective slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes

I struggled with the writing style here - jumping across storylines and introducing characters left and right, plus the lack of quotations with the dialogue meant it was so hard to settle into the story. The last 1/3rd is a huge improvement over the beginning but still shuffled around a lot.
I likely would have DNFed this if it wasn’t a book club read…
