A review by celiapowell
The Luminaries by Eleanor Catton

4.0

It took me rather a while to read this book - not only is it long, but it's very dense. (I don't reading YA and urban fantasy has really improved my ability to sink into more literary books.) But after I slowly made my way through a third or so, I was completely hooked. It's wonderfully written, so detailed, and both a literary and mystery novel.
