A review by mazza57
The Beauty of Impossible Things by Rachel Donohue

2.0

You will read many reviews that tell you that this tells you a story of a girl gifted with precognition or prescience, that it follow the events of a past summer. In fact this book fails to create a narrative of any sort. For me it is the flattest book i have read in a while. I have no feeling for the characters who are almost ephemeral in whatever can be constructed as a narrative. This is the second book that i have read from this author, like the first this has failed to capture my imagination - I imagine it will be my last from Ms Donohue who fails to create any sort of pace or tension in her meandering narratives
