Picked this up randomly as a ‘blind date with a book'. Will not be going on a second date.
If I'd read one of the other books in the series I may have enjoyed this more. It was interesting enough but I found the split storylines somewhat jarring. There are plot holes and no obvious character development.
A wonderful introduction to the Gabriel Allon character series. Looking forward to reading more of them! I enjoyed the detail and the characters. It felt a little too drawn out at times with not much depth, but overall an enjoyable read
A character-driven fan fic that explores the lives, loves and losses of the Longbourne servants. Clever and drly witty at times.
There is a long section about one character's experience of war that I skimmed over because it doesn't really fit with the rest of the story.
Hunger Games vs The Handmaids Tale, set in space. Glow probably has the least amount of detail I've ever read in scifi, which makes it all feel somewhat simplistic. I am invested in the story though and am looking forward to reading the next book.
