I tried to holding on and gave this a chance as much as I could but… While the blurb piqued my interest, this dragged on so much and unnecessarily. So disappointed bc I expected a lot from this as a theater fan. I hate Riven’s self-righteous and holier than thou whining; Jude did not even feel like a MMC. Is he an ensemble character? He just keeps appearing in and out of scenes with no impact to me.

Got to read a few chapters of the this in a bookstore in Bangkok. Instantly hooked! Hopefully I have enough attention span as it is quite a thick book.
