Book Review of Orchid and the Wasp: A Novel

Orchid and the Wasp: A Novel

I love strong female characters, and unlikable main characters sometimes make for the best stories. Unfortunately, the graphic and unpleasant opening image of Orchid and the Wasp by Caoilinn Hughes sets a tone that I cannot get past. I need a connection to develop with the characters or the story to envision the opening in another light. Unfortunately, that connection never develops. I am left wishing I could unsee that opening.
