A review by heaviin
Lithium for Medea by Kate Braverman

dark reflective sad slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? N/A
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

2.0

An examination of intergenerational trauma, brimming with beautiful prose; however, at some certain point due to the excess of the flowery language your eyes eventually glaze over. It's very slow paced, and the main character Rose is very pathetic NGL and the ending makes no sense, but I can't deny that some parts almost brought me to tears. 

I feel if I re-read this book in the future I'll appreciate it more.
