A review by kirahaynes
Fingersmith by Sarah Waters

4.0

Read for my book club

- I like that The characters are complex
- I kept thinking every older female character was sues secret mum ( mrs sucksby & miss Wilson at the asylum)
- Some things confused me at first ( like what the uncle did, porn or poison)
- The plot twists shocked me( sue being sent to the asylum, the baby swap , maud being mrs sucksbys)
- I liked how it showed maud and sue being falling in love while not fully trusting eachother
- I really felt the characters discomfort ( Maud at mrs s & sue at the asylum) which is good writing
- I thought it would just be a sweet love story so it was a very different book than I thought
