Aadaenyaa Well, now I'm remembering how annoyed it made me! Like, how do you write all that, and never connect anything, never explain anything, and just walk away and call it a good day!Well, now I'm remembering how annoyed it made me!

On top of the blandness, the fact that there never is a resolution, you never find out what's happening, so it seems like you put in that effort for... nothing. I'm sure it was meant to be thought provoking, but the thoughts it provoked in me can't be repeated here... lol

Aadaenyaa I'm totally thrilled with this suggestions! I run the SFF book club at my library, so I'm always looking for good, forward moving SFF titles!

Currently reading Leviathan Wakes for book club!
Have you tried Robin Hobb?
Yes, I just finished Leviathan Wakes. I thought it was well written, and there were actually some twists that I didn't see coming, which is surprising. The book club has decided to read the next one as well, although it's not our "official" book lol
As far as Hobb, there are highs and there are lows. As of yet, no one that I know that has read them has done anything but love them. It is a journey, for sure.
