A review by leah_alexandra
Edinburgh by Alexander Chee

dark emotional reflective sad fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated

5.0

I don't have much more to say about this book other than, "wow." I thought the ending was a little bit of a weak spot, but overall, astoundingly sad and beautifully written.
