A review by kailinyoh
The Secret History by Donna Tartt

slow-paced

2.5

“it was one of the reasons i loved him: for that flattering light in which he saw me, for the person i was when i was with him, for what it was he allowed me to be.”

629 pages of booze, greek, drugs, the classics, bad people, academia, etc. etc. i couldn’t get myself to stick with it until i hit 100+ pages in, this one was a tough read.
