The Fall

Quit 20% in. I am not making any progress with this book and it kills me. Something is lost, the events just move so slowly and the ridiculous, blabber-y prose makes it feel even worse. There are brilliant ideas about the wold building and NONE of that is going anywhere here.

On the other hand we get new, fucking frustratingly UWU SPESHÜL characters, like Jane Arai, who is super magical amazing healing genius and just acts like a Tumblr girl. And of course we have to pretend that women who never met each other instantly love each other because that's how women work. Jane's instant appreciation for Bess and her supposed amazing skills is such typical YA bullshit it make me roll my eyes.
20% in and no Chalmers. Okay then.
