raothorn 's review for:

Lord Jim by Joseph Conrad
4.5
adventurous challenging dark emotional hopeful inspiring reflective sad slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

It’s a really good book. Only taking a half-star away for the white savior stuff in the back half of the book (which is still a really compelling character portrait, but yeah of course these people are helpless without a European to save them from themselves)
