A review by shooper
The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafón

Did not finish book. Stopped at 25%.
It's really a pity. It's especially hard for me to dnf this right now because I just dnf'd another book. The writing in this book was exquisite- it would've got 4 stars. However, the author degrades women at almost every step of the way. I later learned that in the latter half of this book there are instances of homophobia and even ableism. I honestly can't get myself to read something like that and then give it any stars. I'm so upset because I had such high expectations. Oh well.
