A review by slysky4
The Dutch House by Ann Patchett

reflective slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

The writing in this book was really well done and I liked the back and forth between the past and present however I feel like towards the middle of the book to the near end was rushed and I didn’t enjoy the whole aspect of the mother. I liked how real everyone felt though as another reader wrote.
