The Boy Who Followed Ripley by Patricia Highsmith

dark emotional reflective slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

I found this Ripley story less compelling - we follow a young American runaway who has moved near Ripley and is in need of help, and I liked the idea of Ripley being a sort of mentor, but it felt slow, the plot was not as interesting as it was in previous books, and it could have been shorter and more dynamic.
