A review by christiec5
The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafón

Did not finish book. Stopped at 35%.
I hated how the author described women and only treated them as sexual objects to be oogled and owned. The male characters were sexist and gross and I absolutely could not stand Fermin. The people that Daniel "interviewed" told him literally everything they knew even though they just met him??? And he wanted to touch and kiss the women constantly - it was disgusting to read. I was interested in the story of Carax and what happened to him and who the devil was but I couldn't get through the actual book any longer and just googled the plot & ending.
