The Read Around The World Book Club discussion

What are your final thoughts?

It has taken me almost a month to read this book, and honestly I don’t know why I didn’t DNF it ages ago. A whole host of unlikeable characters and very little discernible plot or direction. I thought that using the institutionalised daughter as an omniscient narrator was a very strange choice, and I’m not sure what that was meant to achieve. I kept waiting for some twist or revelation to make her character more relevant.

I also felt very meh about this book and like you I am not sure why I did not DNF.
