A review by kagray
In Sunlight and in Shadow by Mark Helprin
2.0
I'm very torn as to what to say about this book. I would give it 2.5 if I could. Part of me loved it and the other part of me wanted to scream at the author, "Just get to the point!" I love a book that paints a scene for you and you can feel you a part of the action. However, I felt as if this book painted every scene in too much detail or maybe just contained too many irrelevant scenes. If you've read the book, this review will make you literally laugh out loud. https://www.goodreads.com/review/447080838/
It took me nearly four months to get through it and now that I've come to the end my heart is broken. I feel like I knew the characters and I ache for them. And that is why I feel torn. The book made me emotional and truly terrible literature doesn't do that.
