marithap 's review for:

I Who Have Never Known Men by Jacqueline Harpman
4.5
dark mysterious reflective medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

I saw so much of myself in the protagonist from the start: the feelings of inadequacy and being left out, the maladaptive daydreaming as a form of escape, the need to know everything just to know... I hung on to her every thought and they're still hanging on to me
