Piranesi by Susanna Clarke
4.5
adventurous challenging dark mysterious reflective sad slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: N/A
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

I've genuinely never read a book like this. I almost DNF because the first act is so slow and meandering, but it then quickly takes a turn and picks up the pace, turning into a kind of mystery.  Beautifully written and the narration by Ejiofor is sublime.
