Every theory I form in one chapter falls apart, gets thrown out in the next😀 No idea what is going on, so far, but I am definitely enjoying it! #piranesi#suzannaclarke#fantasy

Fantasy/magical realism are some of my least favourite genres. Having said that, I made an effort to go along for the ride. I enjoyed the world that Clarke built, the characters and the twisted tale.
Thanks once again goes to @Rissreadswithcats for being my book-pusher, and literally putting this in my hand 🙏. Pushing me right out of my 📖 comfort zone 😆.

thegirlwiththelibrarybag It‘s a much more accessible read than her previous work, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell… I haven‘t DNFed it but I also haven‘t picked it up for half a year 🤷🏻‍♀️ I liked Piranesi tho and having friends who push books on you! 2w
LeeRHarry I found this incredibly pretentious …but maybe that‘s just me. 😏 2w
Leniverse @LeeRHarry Yes, that's just you. 😂 2w

sarahbarnes I don‘t read fantasy but I loved this one too! 2w
MrsMalaprop @LeeRHarry the one dissenting voice 😂 2w
MrsMalaprop @thegirlwiththelibrarybag Yeah, didn‘t love it enough to read her other books. 2w
Rissreadswithcats I enjoyed this one but DNF Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell. And to be fair I think I just had an extra copy of this so I gave it to you. I can‘t remember raving about it to you. But maybe I did! 🤣🤣🤣 I‘ll go back now and read my review. (edited) 1w
Rissreadswithcats @LeeRHarry I just read your comment on my review and it made me laugh out loud! 😹 This was it - ‘Really?! 🤪‘ (edited) 1w
LeeRHarry @Rissreadswithcats 😆 I stand by it! 1w
MrsMalaprop @Rissreadswithcats I don‘t recall you raving about it. I think you are a book-rescuer & I am merely a receptacle who can‘t say no 😂. 1w

I've had this on my TBR for a really long time so I'm glad to finally have read it!
I always liked the movie but felt like there was something missing from it and so I was hoping that the book would give me something more but oddly enough the book read even choppier, if you can believe it.

Dialogue felt stilted at different moments, scenes were awkward in a way that weren't in the film but all in all a solid read that reminded me of why I love it

5/5⭐️
I loved this book. Atmospheric, mysterious and impossible to explain until the end. If you choose to read this one just go with the flow and keep reading.

Suet624 I completely agree. 2mo
TheBookHippie Agree! 2mo
zezeki Yes, I loved this one too! 2mo
