Land of Milk and Honey by C Pam Zhang

challenging reflective slow-paced

3.0

In the beginning, I didn't like this book. I didn't understand the world I was thrown into or what was motivating any of our characters. Slowly, I was sucked into this world though.

I can't say I loved the book, but there's a feeling of abjection here - you can't resist reading more of this collapsing world. And you're pretty certain things aren't going to end well. 

The sapphic rep was a welcome surprise and I enjoyed that female characters really drove the plot here. I'd have liked to see more of what happened after leaving the Land of Milk and Honey.
