Death in Her Hands by Ottessa Moshfegh

dark emotional reflective sad medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

5.0

Feeling generous so it's 5 stars rather than 4. Ottessa Moshfegh is so talented at creating deep, believably complex characters. Meandering slice of life novels often don't work for me but so far I love her work.
