A review by chels_ro
The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath
dark
slow-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? Character
- Strong character development? No
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
2.0
a glimmer of a good book on mental illness and the coming of age of a woman in the 60’s, lost in the authors inability to not write racial stereotypes and every turn and allow the main character to treat anyone in her life well
Graphic: Mental illness, Racism, Self harm, Suicidal thoughts, Suicide, Medical trauma, and Suicide attempt
Minor: Religious bigotry
