Exit West by Mohsin Hamid

fast-paced
  • Strong character development? No

3.5

okay don’t come for me, but i didn’t love this one 

it had SO much potential - superb storyline, beautiful characters, deeply important topic, beautiful writing, meaning ✅ 
but it didn’t impact me emotionally (maybe i’m dead inside). it felt incomplete, lacking depth, rushing the reader through to get to a non-ending. i wanted more character development, more emotional expression, more words, more description. i maybe would have appreciated it more as a short story? i don’t know
