What I'm Reading

I reallyyyy enjoyed this twisty dark book. We begin when a woman is asked by a researcher to give an account of her aunt's life, an aunt who has been hanged for murder. We go back and forth through time, strange family dynamics, siblings and the parent-child relationship, all unfolding during WWII, so if you've been keeping track of my reading, you know it checks all my boxes. A Dark-Adapted Eye is my first Barbara Vine, Ruth Rendell writing under a pseudonym and I read it all in three days (it's very long so will take a while!) Give it a go if you're in the mood for strange people, which should be your forever mood to be honest. It starts slowly but I think that's part of what makes it so brilliant. #bookstagram #mrmbookclub #100in2022 #ruthrendell #barbaravine #adarkadaptedeye
