pickClose to a so-so, but considering I'd trouble putting it down, it gets a pick. It's hard not to compare The Angel's Game to its predecessor, The Shadow of the Wind, and in that comparison, TAG's the weaker book. It's darker and more hopeless than TSOTW, I didn't connect to David Martín the same way I did to Daniel Sempere, and the story lacked something. That being said, it is a book for book lovers, and it made me want to visit Barcelona so much!

BookBabe Great review! I enjoyed Shadow. I hope I‘ll like this one. I don‘t know that Shadow needed to get any darker or more hopeless, so that‘s worrisome, lol. But I‘ll read it and see. 🌱 Is that an aloe plant? Looks WAY better than mine. (Wouldn‘t you say, @MrBook ?) 7y
Kalalalatja @BookBabe I know many people who have enjoyed this as much as Shadow, and this was a good read, just not as good as Shadow - for me. And I'm not completely sure, which type of plant it is really ? it is definitely in the succulent family, but I'm not sure about it being an aloe plant. The "leaves" don't feel thick enough for that, but it could be ?♀️? 7y
MrBook I'd say, @BookBabe ! 7y
