A review by doormatt
The Secret History by Donna Tartt

mysterious tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

To start off with telling you they murder the guy and then to still have a very tense twist end? Ooof highly recommend
