A review by fasmina
Clarke by Holly Throsby

5.0

Oh boy. This book. Why. Why did I even read this?

Let’s start from there. I saw heaps of reviews and posts about this book in Instagram and thought to jump on to the bandwagon. Well I know what everyone is talking about. This book can break you.

While reading it on Kindle, I also got the audiobook to try simultaneously. And this made me fall in love with audiobooks!! But what I didn’t expect is that I’d be listening to the last chapter, and would wonder why the book ended abruptly. That’s when it hit me.

This is an author to watch out for.

A beautiful book about two different souls living next to each other. With so much baggage from their families, these two protagonists take the book on to so many stags of emotions. There is a mystery too but you might not see it because of all the emo5ions that run through it’s pages.

At times, I felt a bit distracted because the book focused on thoughts and musings of the individuals and it was too heavy and at times monotonous. But to me, it’s the best way to write this book. D

Unfortunately words fail me. I struggle to review it without spoilers. But this is a must read.
