Mad Mabel by Sally Hepworth
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Oh Man.
I’ve always been a fan of Hepworth’s novels but this one stands out amongst the others.
There’s no way to finish this book and not to fall completely in love with Mabel and not to find yourself cheering for her, wanting to hug her and apologize to her on behalf of the world and truly cruel people that ruin it.
It’s hard to say that I loved reading this book because so much of it is so sad. So much of it was spent with me trying to jump into the pages of the book and protect Mabel. And also it’s such a sweet, dear, at times funny, and mostly devastating book.
The audio is truly fantastic and brings both of the mabels to life so well. A true gem from Hepsworth.
with gratitude to netgalley and Macmillan Audio for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review
