A review by blue_summer_song
The Shadow Land by Elizabeth Kostova

2.0

I read a little over half and then stopped caring what happened so skimmed the rest. I expected a book that was part travelogue from this author but it just didn't work for me in the way it did for The Historian. I didn't care for whiny Alexandra and felt she had no growth (in fact, she felt like a cardboard cutout of the daughter from The Historian, a character I also disliked). I don't know. So many feelings but since I DNFed this one, I need to let it go.
