Piranesi
Susanna Clarke
★★★★½4.5
Unlike anything else I've read. It starts as a puzzle and ends as something tender and strange. Clarke builds a world with such internal logic that by the time you understand what's happening, you've already accepted all of it completely. I finished it in one afternoon and sat with it for days.
