A review by renjamin
The Secret History by Donna Tartt

challenging dark mysterious slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

I've never read anything like this and I don't think I ever will. It felt the antithesis of a Safdie brothers film
