A review by shooper
The Alienist by Caleb Carr

3.5

I liked this more than I expected to. At first I was pretty sure I would end up getting 4 or 5 stars. The writing style worked for me even though it was very descriptive. It was atmospheric. I also liked the psychological concepts that were added throughout the book. The reason why I bumped it down is because it started to loose me in the middle. The mystery seemed to drag. Also, the ending was... ok.
