This maybe an unpopular opinion; however, I just couldn't make myself finish. Bailing at 35% read. I didn't care about the MC and the plot didn't get my attention. The whole thing felt like a slog. #HailTheBail #Read2025 @DieAReader
I was reading for #AuthorAMonth @Soubhiville challenge and was excited since I enjoyed Bardugo's other books. On to better things!

TheSpineView @DieAReader Amen to better books! 6d
Gissy I haven‘t post my review yet but I didn‘t like it. It was so different of Bardugo‘s previous novels, it was not like her writing style at all. 5d

I reread this recently for Bookclub. I enjoyed the atmosphere and writing and the character of Fermin ❤️. However, I read it first 20 years ago, and I remember being excited and enthusiastic about it then. This time it felt a bit laborious , although it‘s still magical. It was a very different experience. I wasn‘t as blown away. It can be interesting rereading a book. 🤔

LeeRHarry I felt exactly the same when I reread this one. I stayed up all night reading it the first time round. 😊 7d
Cathythoughts @LeeRHarry Really ! So interesting , maybe it‘s for a younger reader 🤔 YA (edited) 7d
LeahBergen I suspect that I‘d feel much the same way! 6d
Cathythoughts @LeahBergen Right. I don‘t reread much, only if I have to … 👍🏻❤️ 6d

Well, what an interesting and immersive read!
I didn't realise it would be so fantastical and it took me a while but was definitely worth it.
Loved her journey and awakening, her sense of understanding of the world.
Plus loads of details about Ibiza.

It read too much like a textbook to hold my interest.

I loved this book. Totally not a typical read for me but it was fun and entertaining and a great story.

This was interesting and had some lovely thoughts about the interconnectedness of humanity and beyond. It‘s just too woo-woo for me and a tad long-winded. Not my thing, but I imagine there are others who would really love it.

GingerAntics I don‘t know. This author shot himself in the foot for me with The Dead Father‘s Club. I‘m not sure I will ever read him again. (edited) 3w
HeatherBookNerd I the only other book of his I‘ve read was the Midnight Library. It was fine, but I‘m not sure he‘s a go to author for me 3w
