A review by ciarajonah
The Bookseller by Cynthia Swanson

Not my favourite. I think the writing was good, and I was initially very intrigued, but it was so slow. I constantly felt like I was ten steps ahead of Kitty, and it frustrated me. It was very difficult to read how Michael was treated and the way his autism was spoken about. I know it was period relevant, but jaysus.

Overall, I found this slow and predictable. I really enjoyed parts of it, like her relationship with Freida, the time period setting, but overall it felt a bit hollow.
