The Library at Mount Char | Scott Hawkins

I wanted to love this so much but it was just too damn disjointed for my tastes. We're tossed into the book at the beginning, which reads like the middle. It didn't really come together for me at all, despite hoping and praying it would eventually all make sense. A few scenes gave me hope, but otherwise, it was not for me. I didn't care about the people. On audio, a lot of the dialogue sounded stunted, with lots of OKs and Yeahs. ⬇️

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick "Jennifer" sounded like she was hopped up on quaaludes and perhaps I would've liked this better if I was, too. Part The Librarians, part Doom Patrol, but 100% not my cup of tea.

mcctrish The strangest book! I tried it on audio, could not deal at all, read in print = somewhat better but still bizarre 2y

BarbaraTheBibliophage Definitely a weird book … not for every mood or reader. 👊🏻 2y
