A review by louismunozjr
The Perfume Thief by Timothy Schaffert

2.0

2 stars, maybe closer to 2.5? Couldn't really get into the book, if I'm honest. The characters felt inauthentic, as did some of the period atmosphere. Maybe I wasn't paying attention, especially since I ultimately skimmed large swathes of the book. I could see this book exciting and fulfilling others' expectations, but color me uninvolved and disengaged from pretty much the first page.

Many thanks to #NetGalley for a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
