Incredible!

Revisado: 10-01-24

This novel is a wild ride and it literally blew my mind! Sometimes you read a book which is so singular you know after the first few pages it will become a favorite. I will return to this novel over and over in the future.

There are not enough superlatives to describe Three Women in Paradise by Victoria Avilan or the experience of reading it. This book is multi-layered, challenging and intelligently written. It is literary without pretence or excluding readers.

Avilan’s writing is sharp, witty and poetic. She guides the reader through complex, ever changing realities with a playful hand and firm command of a plot that could have easily spiralled out of control. Her characterisation of the three women (four including Peggy) is sublime. Although the novel hinges on the strength of the main character Elektra (Ellie or Ella). In her, Avilan has created a singular, tortured tour de force. This book is allegorical, romantic and fantastical!

Abby Craden’s narration is stunning. The audiobook is a flawless example of alchemy between author and narrator.
