Eleanor - by Jason Gurley

I picked this book up because of the cover. It's beautifully designed.

Fortunately, the story is equally beautiful. Jason Gurley's writing is certainly genre-defying, which makes reviewing his books rather challenging.

It's a slow read - heavy on the gloom. It'll make you feel like you're sitting in a grey, rainy, sleepy seaside town the whole time. If you're looking for a quick, easy, light read, look elsewhere. I do recommend this one though. It's wrenching, emotional, moving, and powerful.

I think this one will stick with me for quite some time.

I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review.
