“The Tender Grave is a complex and beautiful novel about a teenage girl that must come to terms with her part in a horrible act of violence. Without mitigating the seriousness of her crime, we learn Dori is also a victim at the hands of those who should have protected her growing up. Throughout the novel, readers must grapple with the tension of empathizing with Dori's vulnerability without ever excusing her actions. It's difficult and uncomfortable, but that seems to be exactly Reynolds's point. "Most people want things clear-cut and simple: a good guy and a bad guy, a right way and a wrong." Here, we get a reality that is far more complicated and painful, but also healing.”
