I don’t want to go into someone else’s positive book review thread and crap all over it, so I won’t do that…but what am I not seeing?
I started the book last night, and today I decided to give up 21 pages in. The over the top flowery prose is cringe-inducing. It’s riddled with grammatical errors, the author used verbs as nouns, and at one point I think he made up words or at least used them incorrectly. I actually started laughing at a paragraph at one point. I try to give it at least 50 pages before giving up on a book but I can’t take this one any further.
This has so many good reviews, and I genuinely don’t get it. Am I alone here? Am I the crazy one? I understand a book that is being praised but just isn’t for me for whatever reason. But this was unreadable.
