God this novel was such a drag.

There was some quality writing in there. And there was the skeleton of a good story. But it was largely bogged down by so much overwriting, not to mention an atrociously orchestrated ending.

This “review” is part of a series in which I quickly scribble a few of the thoughts I had regarding a book I read in the first half of 2021 during a time when I let my reviews get very behind.
