Anna O by Matthew Blake

dark mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.5

Tricky one for me. I think that the story and plot twists were quite exciting. However, I found the excessively short chapters unnecessary- many of them should have been combined because they were a complete continuation of the previous one. I also found the final reveal slightly dissatisfying.
There hadn’t been enough of Clara throughout the book and I felt the clues were not dropped clearly enough.
The writing was good and it was a fair read but I wasn’t overwhelmed by it.
