jdweston 's review for:

Piranesi by Susanna Clarke
5.0
hopeful mysterious reflective fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Piranesi was a fantastic read for so many reasons. The mystery surrounding the house the main character lives in unravels gradually and in a satisfying way. I also thought it was very well paced, by the biggest highlight for me was the tons and tons of symbolism and metaphor packed within it. It makes me desperate to reread Piranesi to see if I pick up on anything new. A wholly unique and intriguing read!
