2 ⭐ This is a DNF. This book was 18 hours and it feels like it. Maybe if I was reading this book instead of listening to it as an audiobook that might‘ve made a difference. I got more than four hours into it, and I don‘t care about anything that‘s happening. Plus, there is slippage going back-and-forth. different characters brought in, it‘s sometimes confusing. There is something out there in the mountains.

LibrarianRyan Two experienced climbers go to hike this peak and only one comes back. And this hiker does not come back hole. They are missing half their face due to a fall. We start the story hearing from the significant other. We hear them talk about whether they should stay with the hiker or not. How people are praised for staying when things get rough instead of parting ways. But then you also have our hiker who‘s like we “weren‘t alone on the mountain there 4mo

LibrarianRyan there was something”. I‘m at the point where the hiker is reminiscing about a hike with their grandmother. There are just so many limbs to this tree that the story is all over the place. There‘s not a linear story and it is so big and so much more than it needs to that it made the book boring. As a reader I didn‘t care about any of the characters. What I really cared about is the entity on the mountain but there‘s been nothing. No hide nor hair, 4mo

LibrarianRyan just there‘s something on the mountain. This is almost like Midsummer. A great big buildup to fizzle out to nothing and has me thinking “Why does everybody love this?” That‘s where I‘m at in this book, which is why I am at 4 1/2 hours out of 18 and DNFing.
