emotional mysterious reflective slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated

beautiful concept and overall atmosphere, but at times too rich even for me. i found myself going back and forth over things a lot. It kind of reminded me of the feeling of the week between christmas and new years - lovely, indulgent, but hard to keep track of and a shade overwhelming

super racist at times, but otherwise really funny and enjoyable to read, petered out in ch. 6 though idk what that was.

I think Virginia Woolf is one of the real masters of lit and I want to reread this short book sometime soon to get a better grip on it. Rather subversive too with the gender stuff

crazy work for its time, but not the most engaging to me in the present.

I enjoyed this overall, but feel like I need to take some time to digest it and properly rate it. It’s quite different from her other works.

One of my favorite books, not my absolute favorite by Woolf. Brilliant, modern, and unique.
A must-read if you're into plot-twist, feminist perspectives and character consistency yet development.
