The Shadow of the Wind Carlos Ruiz Zafon

The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon is an intriguing story, but I think what connected with me most was that it revolves around a main character, Daniel Sempere, who is at a point in his life where he is trying to balance maturity and his growing responsibilities with his ‘childish’ fascination for stories and adventure. He is influenced by all the different people in his life and their expectations of him, but ultimately he has to decide what kind of person he wants to be, and which friendships and relationships deserve his loyalty.
