The Swan Thieves: A Novel | Elizabeth Kostova

This is a relatively new purchase, but I admit I only bought it on the strength that I'd read The Historian 😏 although it does have a pretty cover👌
Anyone read this?
My to read book stack is dangerously teetering, at risk of toppling over, yet I keep adding 😁

Mehso-so

Was talking about this book earlier tonight. Think The Historian is an example of reader expectations/wants defining the quality of the book. If you want a book with beautiful, evocative, and dark language, then this book is fantastic. If you're wanting a tightly-plotted vampire/thriller novel, you should look elsewhere. I fell into the latter camp and was disappointed. #vampire #Dracula #ElizabethKostova #vampires #literary #TheHistorian

Paula3 Read this book years ago felt much the same. Very blah 7y
BillBlume @Paula3 I'll admit that I debated a good bit between the "So-So" and "Pan" label. I gave it 1 star on Goodreads back in the day. This book was a big disappointment for me. 7y
just_tosh I've had this book sitting around for a while and I've been debating whether or not to read it. 7y
BillBlume @just_tosh, if you read it, let me know what you think. Seems a very divisive book. 7y
Betty_Bookworm I absolutely loved this book. But yeah- if you are looking for Twilight this is certainly not that. 7y
