Yellow Jessamine by Caitlin Starling

dark mysterious slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No

Really torn on this. I liked it, it had nice spooky moments and felt fresh and well written, but I never emotionally connected to the characters. I generally like moody dark characters, but Evelyn was a touch grim even for me, without any hint of happiness in her life.
