River Woman, River Demon: A Novel by Jennifer Givhan
Finished Reading: March 9th, 2023
Format I read: Libby
Rating: 3.5 out of 5
Main Characters: Eva and her family
Thoughts: Very slow pacing which is why I rated it lower. It was written well, but took forever to get there. I did like how the author twisted everything together, tricking the reader where to look or assume the problem is coming from or feeling uncertain if the main character- Eva, was a believable voice or not. The trauma, fear, manipulation, and memories twisting themselves around like a noose. I just wish it was a faster pace, could have cut a lot out for saving time.
