@virtualbri Could it have to do with the narrator?

virtualbri, 16 days ago

@CStamp Sometimes for books that's definitely the case, but I actually like the performer quite a bit. I just have no connection to any character at all, and the settting hasn't grabbed me.

I'm still going to give it a bit; it's not bad or immediately rejectable. :)

@virtualbri Maybe it's a slow pull-in. I've almost given up on a few books, but glad I stuck with them.

I'll be curious as to how you end up enjoying it, if you don't mind saying later. Always looking for a new good series. :)

@CStamp I'm dying for the last Locked Tomb book to come out, I think, this year.

CStamp, 16 days ago

@virtualbri Hmmm...the trilogy has been released. Maybe I'm confusing it with something else. The series by Tamsyn Muir?

@CStamp That's it but it's a quad, with Alecto the Ninth due this year.

CStamp, 16 days ago

@virtualbri Ahhh...it's described as a trilogy. They should say series.

virtualbri, 16 days ago

@CStamp Yeah, what I read is that Nona the Ninth was an introduction that became too big and then a book of its own.

But, yeah, should be updated.

@virtualbri I tried reading it half a dozen times. Couldn't do it.

@GramrgednAngel I'm not even finding it bad, just unengaging.

I'm totally willing to listen to why people might love it; sometimes things just aren't for me. :)
