Notes on an Execution

emily_alwubayran shared a tip "A heavy, haunting novel of violence, and those who are lost in its whirlpool. We see how the choices of oppressors, murderers, and violent men are obsessed over, how every little movement, thought, must hold some great meaning or reason, but so often as a society that overshadows the victims, those whose brilliant lights were extinguished, and those who were left behind to grieve and wonder what could have been. Raw and heart wrenching."

kim_4259 shared a tip "Pretty good. The author tends to overuse analogies which started to get a tad annoying (the woman had clear skin like fallen snow like a puffy cumulus cloud like a baby’s bum like a porcelain teapot… we get it, she has clear skin) it was just excessive at times. Otherwise, very good read."

audriana_medina shared a tip "First book I've read in awhile so in the beginning it was hard to stay attentive but with each character the author introduced they seemed so real and had emotions that you could see someone truly having. You could really see all that was happening in your mind and how the years went on in each chapter and how all the characters revolved around each other, but this could just be very obvious things. In the end I was near tears with how everything turned out, its a great start to reading again"
