To Paradise by Hanya Yanagihara

5.0

dark mysterious reflective tense slow-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: Complicated

Loveable characters: Complicated

---

A dense, rich, tripartite tome 

Vocab. and literary excellence+++

Themes of fear, loneliness, abandonment, class, desperation, familial legacy, and dystopian realities in a totalitarian controlled state (fascist regime seeking total control over life and death 👀)

Skepticism becomes fuzzy paranoia; critique collapses into conspiracy 🚨

Mystery with a threatening bite
