Listening to the audio. I really love a family saga, but this one is a slow go. I am hoping it gets better.

I found it too long. I hope it gets better for you.

Thank you! It just doesn't feel like it's going anywhere.
I was surprised so many loved this book. It wasn't for me or maybe I read it at the wrong time.
I am considering DNF-ing this book. It is just not engaging and I am not sure if the audio narrator has something to do with it.
I rarely do audio for that very reason. Narrators are so important when considering audiobooks. Just remember there are so many books so little time. Don't continue if it isn't grabbing you.
Are you planning on attending Booktopia this year?
I'm not attending this year. My little one is only 3, but she's stating to become a decent traveler. I'm hoping to maybe come next year. It will be easier for my mom and my daughter to find things to do if she's a little older. I think I'm going to abandon Buckeye!
Check out the books and authors attending Booktopia. They have a list under events on Northshire's website. I don't blame you for DNFing Buckeye. I really didn't care for it.
