A review by horseink
The Secret History, by Donna Tartt

dark emotional tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.5

I am both amazed and repulsed by this book. It was a very interesting story, the characters have a lot of potential and the writing is good but the plot gets very twisted and dark.
