The Lost Apothecary by Sarah Penner

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

3.0

A little slow for me, but picked up by the halfway mark. After I eventually got about halfway through, I had a much harder time putting the book down. The writing/subject matter was, at times, cringey and forced. However, I enjoyed the mystery, setting, characters, style of chapters, and how the end played out.
