myzanm 's review for:

Tin Man by Sarah Winman
3.0

I sooooo wanted to love this book.
It was different. Had a new approach to some sensitive subjects. But every pro had a con. It all equaled each other out. I’m left with ok.

The writing was at times breathtakingly beautiful.
Other times it was boringly choppy.
I loved that the characters had both good qualities and flaws. No one was perfect.
They sometimes just felt flat and uninspiring.

There was nothing wrong really, but it failed to grab me the way it seems to grab everyone else. It’s a perfectly good novel, but not everything is worth waxing poetics about. And I sadly don’t think this was worth that much.

It’s a nice story, but to me it was just that. Nice.
