Great story but unnecessarily long.

I have conflicted feelings about J.K.Rowling these days, and I am sure this changes my reaction to her writing. One thing is that this book needed a sterner editor. It is far too long, too flaccid for a thriller. But what I really notice is her descriptions of characters is unnecessarily unkind, manipulating an unjustified revulsion in the reader. The plot is ok, if over the top in terms of the conspiracies and how far they go, as well as the sadism of bad guys.

I guess there is going to be another book then…..

A really enthralling read, even at almost 1000 pages.
Two complaints:
1. The book gets really heavy to hold
2. How many books will it take to get the ending we all want?

I loved this, as always. Now that I’m done (nine hundred pages!) I have a few logistical issues with the cult (tens of thousands of members? How could that many people commit after the weeklong retreat and just stay there forever? Do the famous people do the retreat? How come the actress doesn’t have to live there permanently?) but I’ll chalk it up to my cult obsession and let it slide. I guess I like smaller cults. And while I wanted it to be even more sinister, it was pretty dang dark. Four stars, highly recommend. Can’t wait for the next one!!! #engelbrechtreads2023 #engelbrechtreads
