I guess there are women who live this kind of life? I guess it’s worth being aware of their experience? But I’ve already heard it. I’ve seen this story. The obvious desire to elevate it with more literary writing was not successful. The bit with the harpy, for example, didn’t add enough to it that I think I’ll ever feel compelled to recommend this book to anyone. I was honestly very bored for the majority of it.

Wow. Just... wow. I was immediately pulled into this story. I wasn't sure where the author was taking me but I was happy to go along.
This is a fairly short book but it packed a big punch for me. I did feel like it dragged a bit in the middle but I listened to the final chapter twice because I wasn't quite ready to be finished.
Very satisfying. I nearly forgot to mention how much I enjoyed the author's writing style and language choices. And the narrator was fab! I can definitely see myself reading The Harpy again.
Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for the audiobook!
