ireadsstuff 's review for:

Orlando by Virginia Woolf
4.0
adventurous challenging mysterious sad slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This book caught me from the very first page, the language was beautiful and it brought me to worlds I had not visited before - but would love to see again. Woolf is controversial and has a lot of strange opinions, but the fact that somebody so long ago can adress gender in such a complicated way was a positive surprise to me.

turns out this is a lesbian love story and that filled my heart with joy
