Immediately intrigued and pulled in! Brutes held my attention even though I didn’t understand it half the time 😅

Switching timelines, told mostly through a group POV (using “we” as it tells the story of the whole group) and the future timelines which feature one chapter from each character in a sort of “where are they now” POV. The novel forms a story of girlhood, jealousy, and loyalty with religious and dark undertones!

This was a quick and captivating read but not as dark as I expected based on the synopsis.

Expected a mystery where we learn what happened but we never really do. I was especially confused by the ending.

Very weird story and confusing but I kind of liked it? Definition of no plot just vibes, which I don’t usually enjoy but the writing and characters held me. I really enjoyed the imagery and lyrical prose!
