The Unworthy Book Review
Imagine if The Handmaid’s Tale happened during the apocalypse. You’d have “The Unworthy,” which features strong female characters who’ll do anything to survive.
Imagine if The Handmaid’s Tale happened during the apocalypse. You’d have “The Unworthy,” which features strong female characters who’ll do anything to survive.
A modern-day fairy tale that takes you back to the whimsical dreams of your childhood. For fans of “Alice” and “The Ocean at the End of the Lane.”
Flat, undeveloped characters, telling instead of showing, and a lackluster plot all contribute to a novel that just isn’t working.
[The story] holds a magical allure without stepping outside the boundaries of realism. The journey Alexandra goes on to return the ashes is like the trials and tribulations of an epic hero, though in a much more modern sense.
