jmetzler125 's review for:

The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula K. Le Guin
3.75
adventurous challenging reflective slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

The prose and ending of this book were beautiful, but I'm not sure it made up for the fact that I had a really hard time following the first 2/3 of the book.

I know a lot of people really love this book and it was clearly ahead of its time, so it might be worth a re-read someday now that I have a better understanding of the main plot points.
