Valerie S. (VolunteerVal) - reviewed on + 652 more book reviews
The very structured life of Lenny Marks suits her; she doesn't deal well with change. So when she receives a shocking letter in the mail, she begins to flounder and is forced to step outside her routines. This begins a surprising journey of self-discovery which is heartbreaking but also heartwarming.
In her debut novel, Australian author Kerryn Mayne creates a wonderful character-driven story with an interesting plot involving neurodivergency, murder, found family, and a dog. I read this via audiobook and enjoyed Annie Maynard's narration.
Readers who liked Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman, The Maid by Nita Prose, and/or All the Lonely People by Mike Gayle will appreciate Lenny Marks.
Thank you to St. Martin's Press and Macmillan Audio for review copies of this novel.
