A review by sunkissedrose
Piranesi by Susanna Clarke

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

5.0

kinda one giant mindfuck that'll get you thinking. one question leads to the other and you're left doubting whether anything is real, if anyone is truly an ally, and it's a journey I'd do anything to experience reading again for the first time. def does have a slow start that focuses on building up the setting and letting you know more about "The House". this can get boring for some (plot picks up page 90 ish) but I found it super interesting and Piranesi was a fun character.
