bookstagab 's review for:
The Manor of Dreams
by Christina Li
This story follows generational trauma & mystery.
I did like this story, however i felt like the dual timelines got confusing at times. The past timeline felt more detailed and woven together than the present POV.
I loved the explanation of the house (although rushed) and why it was filled with anger but also left with questions about the history of the house in Ma’s era. How was the house haunted then? Was it just repeated generational trauma and something different haunting the walls back then?
I did read through this pretty quickly in the beginning but was in a major slump in the middle, the end was fast paced but seemed very jumbled. This took me a while to read.
I find myself not remembering much at the end of the book
