Reviews for "The Secrets and Lies of Cabinet Magid's Disappearance"
1. Jane - 2 stars - I found "What happened to Cabinet Magid" to be quite confusing and disjointed. The storyline was all over the place, with random plot twists that didn't add anything to the overall narrative. The characters were also poorly developed, making it difficult to connect with any of them. Additionally, the pacing was slow, and I felt bored throughout most of the book. Overall, I was disappointed by this novel and wouldn't recommend it to others.
2. Mark - 1 star - "What happened to Cabinet Magid" was an absolute mess. The writing style was convoluted and pretentious, making it challenging to follow the story. The author seemed more interested in showing off their vocabulary than actually crafting a coherent plot. I also found the characters to be unlikeable and unrealistic. The whole book felt like a jumble of ideas that the author couldn't decide how to tie together. I was left feeling frustrated and confused by this novel.
3. Sarah - 2 stars - I couldn't get into "What happened to Cabinet Magid" at all. The storytelling felt disjointed and scattered, with no clear direction.
