as someone who has lived in texas my whole life… this portrayal of the south is so flat and boring. one of the most beautiful things about living in the south is that a lot of moving sentiments are expressed in oftentimes simple and fractured language… and yet lacey has all of these characters go on tragic 3 page monologues talking with language like they have an mfa.. literally cartoonish rendering of the south

i think my issue with this novel is a lot of the beautiful lines dont seem earned. in the sense that every chapter is another random character going on a 3 page monologue and thats pretty much it…. which is fine but with a story like this i feel like theres so much more to explore
