dark emotional sad slow-paced

1.5

The book cover is beautiful but, very misleading. This book was all over the place for me. 

The character development was lacking I felt the character was being developed as the story was being written. It just seemed kind of thrown together. 

The plot of the story was actually rather stunning and I would have loved it had it been written differently. 

There are parts of the story that due coverthe topic suicide so here is your trigger warning since books don't have to have them ⚠️

Thank you @lovebooktours and @sarahl.king for gifting me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review 💛✨

The Wax Artist is a compelling mystery surrounding the spirits that roam the streets of Edinburgh, Madame Tussaud and the aristocratic Clara Andrews. 

The story is told from the perspective of Ailsa Rose, a woman who can see and commune with spirits, and offers a unique insight into the world. 

The story was engaging from the very first few pages and I didn’t want to put it down! The writing style was lovely though the dialogue took some getting used to. 

It was atmospheric and creepy at times and it felt like I was there with her, walking the streets of Edinburgh. I found the ending really satisfying and loved seeing everything come together. 

This one is definitely worth the read!
