Sapphic Hamlet had all the makes of a book I'd love: tense relationship, apparent mommy issues, just enough spooks.
Rottenheart at it's core, is a good book, but considering how much I loved Hungerstone, I was expecting greatness. Dunn's prose is still just as stunning and does a great job building this world and these characters. However, I felt the pacing of the story to be lacking. The first part of the book started off strong before fading for me in the middle and not picking up much by the end. The characters and their relationship really helped me continue this book. I loved Odette and Claudia separately and the parts they were together. Their relationships with each other and their families were complex and made for a great read.
Thank you Zando and Netgalley for an eARC. All thoughts are honest and my own.
