A Loving, Faithful Animal by Josephine Rowe

zellm's review against another edition

3.0

Interesting and poetic prose, but nothing that really stood out to me or pulled me in. It seemed to be a fairly outside view on all the characters - you get snippets of Lani and Ru, but everyone else feels like a sketch that hasn't been filled in. I did like Lani and Ru's parts of the story though.

Brooding and lovely, every phrase a little act of perfection.
