I love it when a novel that's getting buzz lives up to the hype – and My Absolute Darling is giving me CHILLS right now!
It's a disturbing coming-of-age story about a teen girl simultaneously adored and abused by her unstable, survivalist father. I just started it, and am already torn between: a) burning through it to see what happens next; and b) slooowly savoring its lyrical prose, suspenseful plot, and riveting characters.
Fans of non-genre fiction who like tenacious, youthful female protagonists like Ree Dolly (Winter's Bone) or even Katniss Everdeen (Hunger Games) will be fascinated by this book's unique protagonist.
Take a look at some of these other exciting recent and forthcoming titles that I predict your fiction fans will love this fall!
