lilylanie 's review for:
The Shadow Land
by Elizabeth Kostova
My final impression of this book is certainly much better than it was at about the halfway point, when I wasn’t sure if I was interested in finishing. But when the book really gets into the historical aspects, it takes a turn for the better and becomes a much different story.
I think it’s biggest weakness was the storyline about Alexandra‘s brother, which was really apropos of nothing and seemed overblown for something that happened more than a decade before. I kept expecting the book to somehow come back to that event, maybe even resolve that particular mystery but, spoiler, it didn’t.
