A review by alomie
Tipping the Velvet by Sarah Waters

reflective sad slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

So this book took me a little while to finish, it felt long and slow and in parts I was itching to DNF the book, but i powered through and in the end I probably quote enjoyed it.

I feel like this is one of those important books we should all read, but i did feel a little like it was a wild ride from start to finish in what Nancy ends up as, like innocent girl mooning over an actress to live in lesbian. But that middle part is unhinged. 

Fair play Sarah Walters I guess. What the fuck. 😂
