Really well-written and interesting enough but so far I can't detect the stroke of genius I was promised ;)

I find it somehow hard to read... Maybe it's the wrong moment, too soon after the pandemia but also not during it. It makes me mostly frustrated so far and I can't get into it.

So far I'd send Frederick Wentworth to the other end of the world.

This books is so highly praised among Austen's books but the beginning lacks charm for me and is quite tiresome, like sad gossip without joy and witty remarks.

So far I read the author's introduction and it only irritated me. I'm not very hopeful I'd love it, to be honest ;)

I read some of the stories during university. Time to read the whole thing.

I enjoy it a lot but the part about the murderer of cats was tough :(

My quest to read things I have for years has been going pretty well as for now!

Gdyby ktoś był zainteresowany, to na instagram wrzuciłam moje top10 zeszłorocznych książek... ;)

Mój dramat polega na tym, że skończył mi się dostęp do audiobooka, a nie wyobrażam sobie teraz czytać tej książki. Ona powinna być opowiadana :D I co teraz???

Posłucham sobie w ramach akcji Czytaj.pl :)

I'm at the very beginning but can't get into it. I should be loving it already, taking into account the themes but it's somehow so underwhelming... Maybe it's the writing? Or maybe it's me?

I need something like that, badly. It's already funny, touching and sweet :)

I think about DNFing this one as it makes me feel depressed. Not a rightfully-enraged kind of depressed but the sad one, when you were happy to be included in a party and then learnt you are not welcomed there.

Dobrze się czyta, ale po naprawdę dobrym początku jakoś tak miałko się zrobiło. Czytam dalej :)

It's funny but also not very engaging - ideal for listening to in the background when I work ;)

I like the atmosphere of danger, we know something bad will happen, but for now it's just growng tension.

And hockey. If you don't like this sport, it can be tough to read ;) I don't think I ever watched more than 5 minutes of a hockey game but for some reason I read a few books with hockey in them and have no problem with this discipline at all.

Because apparently I've been reading too few books at the same time.

Wchodzi jak po maśle, choć treść powinna mnie męczyć, to jakoś mnie przyciąga. Zobaczymy, co dalej.

I want to send Mr Rochester to the space and protect Jane at all costs!

Mr Rochester, how can you let these people talk about Jane like that AND in her presence?!

Dear people who has enjoyed it a lot - have you been into it since the beginning? So far it's a nice read, nature descriptions are pretty and I feel I should feel for Kya but... I feel absolutely nothing. I don't care about anyone and the whole investigation is simply boring.

Please give me hope it gets better or that I should just DNF because it's all like that ;)

Oh what a pleasure it is! Why nobody told me to read this book when I was a teenager...

I'm listening to a very old recording - it's not a modern "audiobook" but a radio broadcast for visually impaired people from the 80s. It gives wonderful touch of something old (the lady's accent) and I enjoy the sound of pages being turned! ;D

So far I enjoy reading about the dysfunctional family (or rather what was left of it) and nature description and I don't care at all about the crime part.

Wow. This is so... underwhelming so far.
