A review by ellenreading_theend
Marina, the Shadow of the Wind, the Angel's Game & The Prince of Mist by Carlos Ruiz Zafón

3.0

It took me forever to read this book -- mostly due to life circumstances, not the book. I did feel it started a bit slowly, and it took me a while to get into the book, but I never considered stopping. I was very invested in the characters and the mysteries. I sped through the last 1/4, and really enjoyed the "twists." They felt like they developed naturally and the author didn't just add them in for shock value. Zafon created a wonderful, atmospheric read populated with marvelous, human characters. I don't know that I'll be picking up the sequels -- I feel like the ending was pretty great and can't be improved upon, but maybe in a couple years.
