A review by lihu
Gun Island by Amitav Ghosh
2.0
Unfortunately i did not enjoy this book. The characters all felt flat and the dialogue was unnatural and not very interesting. The descriptions were okay, bit the overarching plot largely predictable while there were small things that made no sense and were never explained. I was personally irkes by this thing the author kept doing, which was for a character to have a thought or assumption only to denounce or confirm it in the very next sentence. The book picked up pace after the halfway point but the ending felt lacking and unsatisfying.
