Sedating Elaine by Dawn Winter

4.0

Frances is all kinds of messed up. She’s drunk more than sober, dysfunctional, and unreliable. She’s me in college.

She invites her girlfriend (who she hates!) to live with her to use her to pay off her drug dealer. The whole plan goes wrong when she ends up sedating Elaine before getting the money. Now she has a pissed off torture happy drug dealer looking for her.

I think Dawn WInter did a bang up job with this novel. At some points it does feel a little redundant. Like what more could you possibly complain about?? But, it also touched on some heavy trauma and mother-daughter relationship woes.

If you love women behaving badly (who doesn’t?) then this is sure to make you L O L.
