Gin, Turpentine, Pennyroyal, Rue
by Christine Higdon
DID NOT FINISH: 33%
Infidelity plotlines among the MCs are almost always going to get me to drop a book. More generally, it felt meaninglessly bleak. I can do a lot of grim, dark, sad, angsty - so long as it feels meaningful. Maybe this book would’ve eventually, but by a third of the way through I wasn’t feeling very sympathetic towards anyone.
Graphic: Homophobia, Infidelity, Abortion
Moderate: Suicidal thoughts
