The Fall

THE FALL starts out great but kind of ends up being a tangle of non-answers and lack of closure. Family madness ends up being a sort of Macguffin for this book and while I liked the vibes, I can see why so many people found the story-telling frustrating. The story is nicely written, though, and Madeline is a sympathetic heroine. I also thought the yo-yoing alternative timelines were pretty well-done. It ended up being a sort of interesting, beautiful mess. I still really liked it though but I wish it had been a little more solid.

"I was so excited to find a YA retelling of House of Usher and then I realized that this author also wrote a Masque of the Red Death retelling that I enjoyed and I may have squeed myself into a squee coma"

"I am usually so picky about YA but all the books I've been reading lately? Killing it. Clearly the gothic YA/horror YA genres are the places to be hehe."
