Saint X by Alexis Schaitkin
3.0

I took the time to really reflect on this book before posting my review. I originally gave it two stars, but then I changed my rating to three stars. Overall, I do think this novel had a lot of potential. The settings, both in Saint X and New York City were beautifully described and the main characters were developed quite well. However, there was a lot of rambling. I felt that there could've been some major editing done to this book and the way Schaitkin, the author, writes just wasn't for me. I do want to acknowledge that this is her debut novel and my experience with this story would not put me off to any of her future publications.
