I loved this book.
Susanna Clarke's writing really works for me. I loved Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell when I read it years ago, so I was excited to read Piranesi. It didn't disappoint at all.
At first, it was a little bit confusing, but Piranesi's journey was absolutely captivating. There were wild theories swirling in my mind, about what was happening, and I enjoyed it so freaking much.

This is a masterpiece. A complex, unique, interesting, enigma that made my mind spin, and made me feel as confined as Piranesi was in this weird world. I loved every second of it, even when it made me doubt if I was smart enough for the ride.
