The Compound by Aisling Rawle
3.0
emotional reflective sad medium-paced

Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This was a fascinating big-brother style novel that looked at what people will do when pushed to their limits. I found a lot of the book interesting and at times a bit slow moving and repetitive. I also wish the ending had a bit more growth from the characters.
I was also a bit confused with Andrew’s character arc and his obsession with the producers when he returned? I wasn’t quite sure what to make of it
I thought this was a great debut novel from the author and I’m sure I’ll pick up more in the future!
