The book itself was 2 stars, one star subtracted from my final rating because of the completely unnecessary use of the n-word by a white author. I felt like the aspect of the story I cared about most (the mystery of the miniaturist) was left unresolved. The rest of the story was relatively bland and I found Nella's character to be pretty annoying.

I really enjoyed this book. It surprised me and kept me engaged the whole way through. I didn't grasp the full message of the story, but it is a complicated one so I may come back to it.
