The Secret History by Donna Tartt-probably the best book I’ve read this year.

The three things I love about the book:The gradual tension created leading up to the murder. I could feel how some of them (especially Henry) reached their breaking point.The character development. The book made me feel like I knew these characters personally. The characters were so incredibly complex people (especially Bunny and Henry) who have their own principles and stick to them.The obsession with beauty and aesthetics in the book. The book is filled with lovely quotes and made me fall in love with Ancient Greece.Another great thing about this book is its straightforward writing style. It makes it easier to follow the complicated ideologies and rituals mentioned.Would 100% recommend it. via /r/books https://ift.tt/3hWtqyI
