jack_cc 's review for:

Brideshead Revisited by Evelyn Waugh
3.0

To be honest i only read this because i heard that saltburn was loosely based on it. At the start you can imagine my disappointment when this was no where near as wild as that movie. This is obviously on me because this was made in the 40s so i don't know why i was expecting anything different. At the start i wasnt very interested in what was happening as it seems the author has a lot of interest in the behaviors of the upper class and Catholicism which i dont have any interest in. I found myself enjoying it more towards the end but definitely felt the ending to be a bit weak. I think i would enjoy this more on a second read.
