The Secret History Novel by Donna Tartt

The story caught up to the present time in the book and it ended in somewhat of an odd way; I think it fits this books perfectly (obviously not in a literal sense). I couldn't make anything of his dreams throughout the story and didn't even try to, but if someone has or had any theories about it please do point it out to me, I'd really appreciate it.

I don't have much to say overall. It was a tough book to read because of how long and annoyingly detailed it was at times; but I think that's what makes this book what it accomplished to be by the end. It was hard to read though such long chapters but I don't mind them. I think the long chapters let me dive into the story better. Without that frequent chapter break, I would almost forget, if not completely, that I was reading a book. And when a chapter did end, it felt natural; as if one part of the story ended and another turn of events was about to unfold.

I think the most "normal" or sane character would be Francis or Richard. I thought the title of that might to the twins but that changed near the end. I still love Camillia though, she's lovely and I really don't care about the incest part. Aside from that, the character who I was the most interested in was Henry. Henry, I think, was the centerpiece. I don't know if I can describe how I think of him, but I was fond of him, incredibly fond of him. He truly was like no other character in most aspects, a soul which did not belong in this modern world of the mundane.

That's all I really have to say. At my heart I feel like I could go on talking about Henry for hours, but I don't know to put what I want to say into words. I came in with a good level of expectation, enjoyed the ride, was bored a few times, and loved it by the end.
