A review by iamnotacentipede
The Library at Mount Char by Scott Hawkins

4.5

This was a masterpiece of a book!

It's multi-dimensional, it's gripping, it's addictive, it places the reader in places that make no sense and I literally ATE. THIS. UP.

This book wasn't meant to describe every aspect of what's going on, but it's a true journey. I closed this book with a smile, these characters are just charming in a fucked up kinda way.

I will say that my only complaint was that the horror/gore seemed more for shock value and not so much to be truly terrifying (which by the end makes sense, but I feel like could have been handled a little better), they seemed to just been thrown in there to make you a little unsettled. 


If you are a reader that needs a plot to be fully placed in front of you with lots of description then this might not be the book for you, but if you are a fan of round about story telling and hidden messages then this will truly move you.
