Wreck and Order: A Novel door Hannah Tennant-Moore

I honestly had a really hard time reading this. The narration is in a sort of stream-of-consciousness style and it keeps jumping around between the present and various points in the past. On top of that, the narrator/main character is not at all likable, but the author also doesn't really provide any compelling reason for why we should read her story. I hoped that something would come through in the end that caused it all to make sense. But there was nothing. I can't really recommend this one.

Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten.

I started reading this a few days ago. It's been sitting on my shelf for a while and it was a LibraryThing giveaway that I should have read and reviewed long ago. I'm on a mission to clear books off my TBR shelf (very slowly) and picked this up but 30 pages in and I'm giving up. There's nothing wrong with the writing - it's definitely a very confident, young voice. Maybe it's just not for me. But after getting through some 30 pages, I realized that I really didn't care for the narrator or her story and that I've got plenty more books to spend my reading time on.… (meer)

I had some major issues with the book; tried to explain it in this review.
