I try to read award
winning books, I figure they win them for good reason, but I've had a
long stretch of not liking any of them. Streak broken! This book was
really interesting. I kind of wish the first section, told from the
Vegetarian's point of view, had been longer but I decided it was more
significant that you didn't understand her as well since no one else
did. This book just had a lot going on. It was about domestic abuse,
PTSD, impulse control, patriarchies, women's rights, mental health, and
society's standards. Like I said, lot going on. You really can't take
away any of these topics either or it would all fall apart. It's
remarkable so much is crammed in to such a short story without leaving
the reader clutching their aching brain. Wonderful. Just wonderful.
