It really did not wow me and I tired to both phyiscally read it and also finisehd it on audibook. I felt like the book read super slow and the characters did not wow me. I just strugled to feel connected to them. I thought the world was cool and unique but the book while it should have been fast pace, was a super not compeling. I might check out book 2. But this book i stuggled with mostly because i did not like the main character that much. ( ) This book just was meh.

But this book i stuggled with mostly because i did not like the main character that much. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars. The book is a supernatural, thriller fantasy fiction. The plot follows "Charlie Hall, who has never found a lock she couldn’t pick, a book she couldn’t steal, or a bad decision she wouldn’t make." Some characters possess the remarkable ability to manipulate their shadows, either through magic or by nourishing them through other means. While character building is a vital component of any story, there are moments where it seems the book could benefit from more depth and development in this aspect. The use of dual timelines, although intriguing, adds to the unhurried pace, requiring patience from those seeking immediate thrills. Aound 3/4 in, it does start to pick up. I just struggled to stay present with the book. The Book of Night may not live up to the high expectations set by her previous works. I still think she is a great author and will read her other works. My heart just wasn't in this one. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

No hay cerradura que Charlie Hall no pueda abrir, libro que no pueda robar ni mala decisión que no esté dispuesta a tomar. Se ha pasado media vida trabajando para los umbristas, personas capaces de manipular las sombras para colarse en habitaciones cerradas con llave, estrangular a alguien mientras duerme o hacer cosas incluso peores. El gran celo con el que los umbristas guardan sus secretos ha creado un mercado clandestino de grimorios. Y para robar a sus rivales... necesitan a Charlie Hall. Aunque últimamente Charlie se esfuerza por alejarse de los errores de su pasado, no resulta fácil hacerlo cuando una trabaja como camarera en un antro de mala muerte, demasiado cerca de los corruptos bajos fondos de los Berkshires. Por no mencionar que su hermana Posey está desesperada por convertirse en umbrista y que Vince, el novio de Charlie (que carece de sombra y tal vez incluso de alma), le oculta algo. El regreso de una terrible figura de su pasado desencadena un torbellino de muertes y mentiras en el que Charlie se ve envuelta. Decidida a sobrevivir, tendrá que vérselas con dobles, multimillonarios caprichosos, umbristas e incluso con las personas que más quiere en el mundo; todos ansían apoderarse de un secreto capaz de otorgarles un poder inmenso y terrible.
