A review by rtansey
Fall on Your Knees by Ann-Marie MacDonald
4.5
This was fully a 5 star novel for me until the last section. It didn’t really wrap up in a way that was satisfying or added anything to the story.
This book was extraordinary. I was sucked in from the first page, and every time I picked up the book I struggled to put it down. The character work is absolutely immaculate. This was one of the most atmospheric books I’ve read. There is so much FORCE behind this whole book. Very disturbing, gothic, absolutely jaw droppingly bonkers at times. There is just so much there. Her prose is some of my all time favourite. But I could tell this was over bloated and the author didn’t really know how to bring it all together. This being her first novel however… I give some leeway. I can’t wait to read more from her.
