A review by janey_bones
The Discomfort of Evening by Lucas Rijneveld

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

3.0

DNF. This book was sad and difficult to read personally. The writing was beautiful and I really loved it but it was triggering for me in the context of early childhood trauma, neglect and grief. Complex and beautiful but not for me, right now.
