The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova

dark mysterious slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? No

3.75

There's a lot I like about this book, but ultimately it's a loooooooooooong time to spend to get where we got.
