A review by megan_mac_
Once Upon a River by Diane Setterfield

dark emotional mysterious sad slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? No

5.0

a winding tale, just like a river

a slow burn, but I was in the mood for the slow build, as the story weaved, twisted, ebbed and flowed 

plus her writing was beautiful and I was captivated by all the stories and characters 

a little bit mystery, a little bit historical fiction, a little bit magical realism ~ a good book to begin a new year with
