The Dutch House by Ann Patchett
2.0
The Dutch House has a beautiful beginning, atmospheric and compelling, pulling the reader in.
However, after that great start, and especially in part two and forward, the book started lacking any originality, going in circles, from one timeline to another, leaving few elements and twists to be actual surprises for the reader. And the ending was just okay.
As for the writing, it was smooth, with nice descriptions and clever dialogues.
