The Waves by Virginia Woolf
4.0
challenging reflective slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Once you understand the unique writing style, it'll get better. The prose are so beautiful i cant help but almost underlined everything. The characters are very fascinating to me, love how the narrative switch up between them and how we learned of them from each other's perspective though the transitions sometimes got all over the place. I feel like Bernard, Neville, Louis, Jinny, Susan and Rhonda sort of represented parts of us in some ways. Not gonna lie, this book required 100% of my concentration or ill be lost. This book honestly hits harder if you're in a euphoric state if you know what i mean...
