A review by christynhoover
The Burning Girl by Claire Messud

dark mysterious reflective sad tense medium-paced

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

4.0

This was my introduction to author Messud. This story of two childhood friends is fairly short, moved along well and was suspenseful.

I liked the reader of the audiobook format very much. She was well cast as reader.

But..... I found the conclusion unsatisfying.
