A review by badmanreads
Birnam Wood by Eleanor Catton

adventurous dark funny tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

The first half of the book was a slog for me and I disliked all the characters but it is really worth pushing through as it becomes faster paced and exciting and the characters develop wonderfully.
