A review by mitzee
Cloud Cuckoo Land by Anthony Doerr

emotional hopeful mysterious medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

One of those books with many different timelines and characters that somehow all work together. Loved the themes of human and animal relationships, environmentalism (in this context it’s both good and bad), and the character growth from different storylines.
