The Death I Gave Him

This book was nothing like anything that I have read before and I found myself wanting to hold off on reading it because I didn't want to finish it. Like At All.

I was a theatre kid so the minute I saw something about Shakespeare I knew that this was going to be a fun read.

I have a good feeling that this is going to become a big favourite once it's in everyone else's hands and I'm excited to see the reviews rolling in so I can scream my agreement with all the high star rated ones.

Thank you to NetGalley and Rebellion for providing me with this ARC. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

The first and last part of this book were really strong, beautiful writing, engaging with just a touch of the strange, absolutely stunning, I wanted to stay with them forever.

The middle section is where things didn't quite do it for me. The writing was still pretty solid though it didn't feel quite on the level with the start of the book. Liu really managed to give most characters a voice of their own but I struggled to stay invested in most of them.

I received a review copy of this book through Netgalley and this is my honest review.
