A review by simoneboyle
The Comet Seekers by Helen Sedgwick

Did not finish book. Stopped at 45%.
The prose was lovely and easy to read, but the themes became too much. I can’t see Rosin as anything but a predator taking advantage of a younger, vulnerable relative, and if my guess is right likely to repeat the same pattern with Francois. I can see what is coming with Liam. It makes me feel a little sick and I just can’t bring myself to continue even though I would have otherwise liked to see how everything tied up with Severin’s story and the history of her family and the ghosts.
