A review by fierymoon
The Secrets of the Princesse de Cadignan by Katherine Prescott Wormeley, Honoré de Balzac

emotional medium-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? It's complicated

5.0

balzac's writing style is just so. fascinating. i loved the way he wrote this slowburn - this transition from all platonic to all romantic feelings, i think balzac managed once again to describe love in its pure essence
