A review by katiegilley
Melmoth by Sarah Perry

5.0

This book was rich with atmosphere, which is what gets me every time!! It's a modern gothic thriller that sucked me in and wouldn't let me go. I loved all of the bookish aspects to this - Helen's leather satchel, doing one's work in a library, a modern character who wrote his story with a fountain pen dipped into an inkpot, and all of the research done to find books and letters that told the story of Melmoth.

This was full of bookish fun and I can't wait to read another by this author!!
