The Secret History by Donna Tartt
4.75
challenging dark mysterious tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated

My favorite part of this book has to be the multiple language usage throughout the book. It is not that often but I really loved it. Especially if it was a language I was learning and I was actually able to understand it.

I can verify about the thing about thinking in different languages that supposed to slow down your thoughts or keep them from going wild. At least in my experience that is true. Honestly that is some good advice. I would say that if you take anything away from that book, it should be or one of them should  be to think in a different language when you're worried.
