A review by madisontolson
The Inland Sea by Madeleine Watts
Did not finish book. Stopped at 24%.
The use of the nameless narrator has made it really hard to get in to this book and makes it feel almost too personal.
As someone who is currently struggling with their mental health I felt that reading this book was putting me too much into these thought patterns and I fear this would damage the small progress I am making on my own mental health. I guess that is a testament to the quality of writing in this book but I just unfortunately didn’t feel like I was reading this book for fun. It was the January read for my friends book club and I feel like this is more suited to an English class
