A review by tahinisaltsummer
The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt

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

3.0

the way non-white characters are described is horrid. The language is wonderful (the poetry of the words is unmatched. Never knew English could be such a beautiful language.), if it wasn't for the racism I would have enjoyed this book, I guess.
