Book Review of Her Fearful Symmetry

Her Fearful Symmetry
reviewed on + 17 more book reviews
Helpful Score: 2


After reading the author's previous work, The Time Traveler's Wife, I was quite disappointed in this book. To be fair, TTTW was a brilliant work that will be hard to surpass. This book contains a similar supernatural phenomenon and captivating imagery, and as in TTTW, the truth unfolds slowly. The book is beautifully written and inventive, but the characters are unsympathetic. The psychological motivations and actions of the characters, especially the book's villain, are so hard to believe that I didn't enjoy the book.
