A review by meg_thebrave
Silver Nitrate by Silvia Moreno-Garcia

dark mysterious tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

A bit of a slow start for me. Moreno-Garcia clearly knows her film history, and while the context is helpful, it bogs down the exposition. However, I enjoyed this exploration of magic and its conclusion, and enjoyed both Montserrat and Tristán.
