bookish_bry 's review for:

To the Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf
4.75
reflective sad slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This is a slow and difficult read. There is no action at all, and is almost purely taking place in characters' heads. It made me feel a sense of lonliness.

It is beautifully done and I especially loved everything in brackets in the Time Passes section. They break up the flowy, almost dreamlike narrative with a frank directness that impressed me. 

I feel like this is a book one needs to read multiple times and will be coming back to it.
