The Rook by Daniel O'Malley

adventurous medium-paced

4.5

I loved the premise and overall vibe if this book. Great take on the supernatural secret agency idea. Overall a big fan, I read it very quickly. I did get tired of bouncing between timeliness, it felt like it was just dragging out the main plot. Pacing needed work and there was some uncomfortable sexism- wasn't clear if it was there highlight it as a problem or was was just there. But I still enjoyed and look forward to sequel, hoping pacing is improved.
