I had to look, cause I'm starting to reach my breaking point.
The protagonist name is mentioned 269 times.
The book is in first person so all that stuff is in freaking dialogues... I can't hold on much longer 😩

This one started so well, and the magic system is brilliant, but damn, the writing style is getting worse and worse and I'm at my limit already

10% challenge successful! I'm intrigued!

“The Strata are several long periods of London history that have coalesced to form layers of the past. In them, thanatists, vestiges, and semblances reside, as do things altogether dark.”

"[...] and only a thanatist can use any of the Strata steps.”

I crawled instinctively toward the sculpture of myself, which I found lying face up, a big hole in its chest. The artistry was exquisite. It called to me. I reached out, touched it. Warmth shot up my fingers and arm. As I looked into my own ash-colored face, some new knowledge awoke inside me.
I rolled onto the rocky image of myself and fell inside it.

It's like we had a conversation, Evie, and I kept ending it with your name. It's so annoying. Especially when there aren't even other people around that could think you are addressing them instead! I'm skimming at this point just cause I don't want plain DNF two books in a row 😭
