renacuajo 's review for:

The Angel's Game by Carlos Ruiz Zafón
4.0

3.75/5 stars

This prequel to The Shadow of the Wind didn’t capture my attention right from the start as the aforementioned did. It took me quite a while until the twists and turns hooked me in, about 40% or so of the book, and that can be a bit too much for a 600-page novel. After the 40% mark I was taken on the ride of my life, though, and I didn’t want to get off.

Besides the crazy last few chapters and plot twists, the end arrived and I still felt like I had so many unanswered questions, and that irks me quite a bit, which is why I can’t bring myself to give this a full 4 stars.
