Passiontide by Monique Roffey
4.5
challenging emotional medium-paced

Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

This is a very relevant story that mirrors real life with its ending. I understand some found the stories of the camp repetitive but I felt it showed how a movement forms and evolved. I liked the perspective of different characters about the events. Highly recommend but keep it mind this book doesn’t really have a plot. It’s mostly focused on the characters and meant to show what’s happening through different perspectives.
There isn’t any resolution at the end which I think makes the story feel more real because unfortunately that’s how many of these cases end.
