himalaya 's review for:

The Dark We Know by Wen-yi Lee

3.75

---

 This was pretty good! 

I thought it was a really good exploration of trauma and had some good characters.  I enjoyed the complication friendship dynamic and how that relationship developed. And of course I always enjoy a book with no romance (there is past relationships here but no romance subplot) 

I didn’t find myself super engaged with the main plot/mystery - some of the elements felt a bit random/ not meshed together enough for me? It wasn’t quite as atmospheric as i wanted. I also wanted a bit more exploration of her relationship with her parents? 

 love a good m/f friendship tho
