![]() ![]() ![]() I wanted to try it again now that I understand Lavender and Kody’s backgrounds and their relationship with Queenie, their longtime therapist. When I first read this book, I enjoyed it but couldn’t really get into the characters because they’re really young and they act it. The supporting cast is Lavender’s older brother Maverick and her twin, River, (Robbie is away at grad school), her cousins, Liam, Lane, Lacey and Lovey Butterson, Miller and Sunny’s kids, her cousin BJ, Randy and Lily’s son, and Quinn Romero, Lance and Poppy’s oldest. The main characters of this angsty second-chance romance are Lavender Waters and Kodiak Bowman, Alex and Violet’s only daughter with Rook and Lainey’s oldest son. I just want to pretend the lies are still the truth. Even her name is the thing fairy tales are made of. Lavender Waters is the princess in the tower. Years later I’m faced with all the little lies, the untruths, the false realities, the damage I inflicted when all I wanted was to indulge in my obsession.

We’d congratulate Engel for crafting such a profoundly relatable protagonist, in an era where work takes over more and more of our lives and the traditional markers of maturity (marriage, home ownership, pension plans, legitimate weekends) are being lost on the rocky terrain of an increasingly precarious contract-term economy. If Bear were first published today, we’d bill it as a literary account of a woman’s quarter-life crisis we’d say Lou’s journey of self-discovery is a heart-rending portrait of the difficulty of maintaining a work-life balance.

I can’t imagine anyone reading or listening to this story and not walking away at the end with it sitting uncomfortably in the back of their minds. While I found it difficult to listen to (on audio book) I was compelled by the complex emotions that are casually strewn throughout the whole book. This is truly a disturbing story of the lost innocence of youth and the cruel nature of human kind. ![]() |
