Not feeling it so far. Can't say that I agree with the high reviews at all, although I can see the potential of it. Title is unfortunately right...this is underwhelming.

I have absolutely no clue what I just read but but I know it was like settling down into a wonderfully warm bed.

... I am unashamedly speed reading this in one to two chapter segments now. I'm just bored. I hate that I'm bored but I am.

I started this book two weeks ago and I really have no motivation to read more than a few pages here and there. I want to read it but damn am I not feeling it.

Hmm, rereading Servant of the Bones by Anne Rice at the moment and I am... currently surprised younger me devoured this. I literally took a two day break to go and read something else so I really hope it picks up soon. The promise is there but the style itself is putting me off.

Some good prose and enjoyable at times but also pages upon pages of boredom.

I feel like we've rehashed the same ground several times over, although I'll grant you that at least half of these times is to let us know that a character is working on totally the wrong assumptions - one of whom should know better than to work on one hypothesis.

Well, here I go again. Apparently, and I take this with a grain of salt, books four and five make the entire thing worth it.

There are enough questions to keep me reading this for the time being but if I'm still feeling this unenthused by the end of this book I don't think I'll be continuing with the series. I've just reached Angus again so perhaps he'll prove more interesting.

I thought it started pretty well but I'm officially bored... Still, I'll give it a bit longer.

Kaila is on page 756 of 1152 of Shōgun (Asian Saga, #1)
Struggling to finish this. After a month of not reading it, I've started back up, but I'm just... bored. The only reason I haven't dropped it is because I'm well... almost 3/4 through it. That hasn't stopped me before but this is not what I expected when I opened the book and was instantly hooked by the first page.

I am so bored. I think I've been told several details twice within pages of each other, and the way the plot is moving looks like it'll be based on character stupidity. Did I mention I was bored? I am. I don't care to read page upon page of the fact Maria loves whatshisname.

House of Leaves

Kaila added a status update
Wow, House of Leaves is a goddamn tomb. I'm quite liking it thus far, but I have a feeling this is going to take me a long time to read. It isn't what I expected, but in truth I had no idea what to expect - I put this on a list of "want to read" a while back, and didn't exactly go digging through reviews. I just knew it was meant to be good, ahahaha.

Bored. Don't care about characters. Already guessed the end result. Not sure if I'll keep reading this or not.

I first read this when I was twelve or so. Read 170+ pages today, and while I seem to have lost the ability to spend every waking moment free reading, I'm still enjoying this one.
