Writers & Lovers by Lily King

4.0

A couple of months ago I started this book in print. It wasn't working for me, so I set it aside. I figured it was a case of "right book-wrong time". But when the audio version became available through the library this week I thought maybe it was actually the format that wasn't working for me. Turned out that format mattered because as soon as I hit 'Play' I was hooked! ⁣

The main character, Casey, is grieving, she feels broken. Her life is messy and complicated. While I didn't necessarily relate to her, the way King developed her as a character was stunning. I was so invested in her story. ⁣

I used to think that I didn't enjoy character driven novels. But the more I read them, the more I realize how satisfying they can be.
