renatasnacks 's review for:
The Diviners
by Libba Bray
oh fuck this was so good but so scary!!!! i didn't know it was going to be so scary!!!! ahh!!!
I understand that some people like scary things??? but it just kind of gives me a stomachache. But I loved all the characters and the mystery and the historical detail so much that I stuck it out through the GENUINE TERROR.
the audiobook is phenomenal too, great voices for all the characters. Highly recommended for your next 15-hour drive.
I also love the diversity, taking full advantage of the 1920s NYC setting--not just white flappers but also the Harlem Renaissance, and how those worlds do and don't interact. And also ghosts ahhhh
Also for me I thought the use of 20s slang was like, just enough, but not so much to be annoying. The cat's particulars!
