Leslie is starting The Night Circus
Waiting for it to capture my attention. So far it ain’t.

The Night Circus

Leslie is starting The Ruins
So far, there is not a single likable character. There is little description of time or place. The only reason that I knew it wasn’t present day is that nobody has an iPhone.

I don’t remember anyone ever using the term “baby bump” in 1985. Are there no editors anymore?

The Ruins

Leslie is reading Form Line of Battle (Richard Bolitho, #11)
I enjoyed it more than the last one, though it was interesting to read a story where a character seems to have no memory of earlier chronological events.

Dammit, this book will just not get going. I am bailing on it for now.

I gave it another 20 page attempt, then sold it at Powell's, and bought Mountains of the Mind instead. How could the same guy who wrote The Terror write such a lame book?
