The Shadow of the Wind
by Carlos Ruiz Zafón
"History doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes" - Mark Twain
This book is a beautiful examination of two parallel lives with wildly different outcomes. My favorite parts of the book are where it focuses on the city itself and how the environment can affect the tone and mood of the scenes. The characters themselves were engaging and relatable and the author does a great job of writing a compelling mystery with likable characters, surprising twists, and an overall very engaging flow.
