A review by umbranrealness
Watersong by Clarissa Goenawan

3.0

Enjoyed the writing and characters in this - as I have with Goenawan's other books - but the plot didn't quite work for me. The main character and Liyun loving each other didn't feel real. And the ending itself is not satisfying at all. Obviously endings that leave you with questions can work, but in this case it feels like the key mystery of the book has extra layers added to it right at the end which are never answered. Shame as I really enjoyed it otherwise!
