The Loney by Andrew Michael Hurley

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

I don’t really know what to say about this one. I wasn’t prepared for it to be most centred around Catholicism which, for someone who isn’t religious made it quite tough. I only began to really understand why it was the way it was when I’d finished reading it and it took a long time for me to understand why the blurb said what it says. 
I can’t say it was a terrible book because it was well written but I just kind of wanted to get it finished more than anything.
