lindentea 's review for:

The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafón
4.0
mysterious medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Takes a bit to get going, kind of melodramatic, and echoes a lot of the misogyny of the genre & era of novels its trying to emulate... but DAMN was I at the edge of my seat after the first like 33% !!
