A review by japanasi
The Secret History by Donna Tartt

dark emotional mysterious sad tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

5.0

basically, I'm too stunned to think clearly? what a book 

excellently written, it was so hard to put down. the descriptions were vivid, the story hauntingly and disturbing.
