A review by eirelynbird
Funeral Songs for Dying Girls by Cherie Dimaline

dark emotional sad medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

Maybe this book just wasn’t for me…
I could see it being a story about life and death, but the amount of paragraphs I read where by the end I was overall confused with what I had just read is too many to count.
It’s a beautiful story, maybe one that I’d have to read again to fully grasp.
I did not think there had to be that much to do with sex? It just seemed like it didn’t really fit into the plot for me? But maybe I miss understood the reasoning

Mrs. Dingles has my heart though.
