A review by josiemi
The Covenant of Water by Abraham Verghese

emotional sad slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

I read the book while listening to the audio. I love when a book is narrated by the author themselves. I love that Verghese brings world to life by giving each main character a distinct voice, doing dialects and accents, etc.
