2.5. I love the subject matter I love dark academia and I was so excited for this one and then it was just fine? I mean not much happened and nothing that did was that interesting. Ah well.

I wanted to love this book more than I did. As a tarot reader the specifics of tarot felt pushed and some of the character and plot development felt off.

Um, yikes. Up until now, I was feeling pretty salty that I had been rejected from the internship I applied to at the Cloisters during my freshman year of college. Now, I’m thinking it was for the best. The Cloisters is an atmospheric Gothic thriller named for the lesser-known campus of The Met in New York City that specializes in Medieval European art. Following a recent graduate of meager means looking to make it big in a cliquey art world, The Cloisters tackles the classic question of what one person will do when they’re at a precipice, asked to choose between anonymity and their own ambition. The story hinges on the historical uses of tarot and as the author is an art professor, she spins a believable yarn with legitimate historical backing. I really thought I could guess what was about to happen at every turn, and still, Hays surprised me.
