American Rapture

Very mixed feelings about this one tbh

eta: after having slept on it, I can say I kind of hated this. The way religious trauma is described here might be the most interesting part but it still falls short and leave us with a protagonist who's a bit flat, even with all the development she goes through (which, again, isn't as deep or engaging to read about). There's also the way it's written. So many ‘ums' and short sentences and then there are sentences that are meant to sound poetic but they come across corny instead.

And then, we don't even get a proper pay off when it comes to the main character's main quest for most of the book? what a letdown.
