Good spooky fantasy. Good messages imbedded. Loved the portrayal of an anxious lead that was still a badass.

It was simultaneously exactly what I expected, yet nothing like what I expected (it was what I expected but not in the way I expected..?)

„A Study in Drowning“ von Ava Reid ist ein tolles, dunkles und üppiges Fantasy-Buch.

Dieses Buch hat alles: Fantasy, Wissenschaft, ein geheimnisvolles, vergessenes Haus am Ende der Welt, die Macht des Meeres, Effys verschwommene Wahrnehmungen der Realität und Bedrohungen, die aus verschiedenen Richtungen auf sie einströmen.
Die Erkundung der Grenze zwischen Realität und Unwirklichkeit wird packend dargestellt und zog mich tief in die Geschichte hinein. Mit einer gotischen, fast traumhaften Atmosphäre und einem Hauch von Wahnsinn bietet das Buch eine fesselnde Lektüre.
Das Buch thematisiert historische Frauenfeindlichkeit und weibliche Hysterie und bietet zudem eine reizvolle Enemies-to-Lovers-Dynamik.
Die Mischung aus Mythen, Folklore und einer herausfordernden Hintergrundgeschichte macht „A Study in Drowning“ besonders packend. Wunderschön geschrieben und reich an walisischer Mythologie – ein absolutes Highlight!

Vielen Dank an NetGalley und den Loewe Verlag für das Leseexemplar
