How I love books like this!

Weirdly, I have a passion for bulky books as they take me longer time to finish. I don't get to start looking for another book so soon. Lol. And by bulky books, I mean books that don't loose their focus along the line.

Some of the main characters are only introduced in the last part of the novel.

But wait. How then do we get to know supporting characters and main characters if some main characters were introduced at the end of the book? Please, I'm just confused.
You wrote an amazing review by the way💕

Sort:  

Like I said, it's a generational tale written on 650 pages. Some characters that you realize are pretty important for the story are not in focus until the last 150-200 pages. :) But still there's plenty of other interesting characters to follow from the get-go.
If you like big books, this one might be up your alley.
