I enjoyed The Secret History, although I found myself reading long chapters which weren’t necessarily boring to read but I kept thinking ‘I’m enjoying reading this but can help but notice that not much is happening’. And the Greek language went over my head a bit too. But the general story was very intriguing and the conclusion was perfect, all wrapped up nicely.
