soliteyah 's review for:

The Night Watch by Sarah Waters
4.25
emotional reflective sad slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

I loved the sentence-level writing, the mood/setting, the insights into the characters. The beginning felt a bit slow, and I had a bit of a hard time fitting together the different storylines into an arc that made narrative sense. But overall I enjoyed reading this.
