All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr

emotional sad tense medium-paced

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

2.0

I was 600 pages into this one, wholly enjoying the story and beautiful prose when one scene took me out of it. See more in the content warnings. Completely unnecessary.

About 600 pages in, there is a scene where three teenage girls and their caretaker are gang raped. It serves no purpose and wholly took me out of the story. Reader beware.
