emberland 's review for:

Piranesi by Susanna Clarke
5.0

What did I just read?

In the beginning, I remember considering postponing this book and read another book instead … I'm glad I didn't.

This book is fascinating. The way everything is put together is nearly flawless.

The setting is spectacular - at least when you get into it (it was jarring at first).
The characters are very well written, especially the protagonist.
The plot is ... weird, but in the best way.

I admit, it is quite a niche book, and won't at all be for everyone. But anyone who loves exploring psychology, or someone who likes a mysterious plot - I think you'd love Piranesi.
