At least it’s over

On September 27, I talked about a very long sci-fi book I was reading. This was out of my reading comfort zone both in genre and length, but I was intrigued, so I gave it a try.

Well, I finished the book today (I had worried that it would take me to December), and all I can say is “eh.” I felt it lacked a climax and, in fact, an entire third act. And still, it could have been 200 pages shorter and still told the story just as well.

I’m not going to say what book this is. I only like to share books that I love. If you want to know, send me an email. Perhaps you like really long sci-fi that feels like the current world (if the current world’s oceans were 55 feet higher.) In that case, I can recommend this book that I’m not mentioning. 

Anyway, I may not have thought it was the best book ever, but I am glad I finished it. I don’t finish lots of books, but this one I committed to. Now, I’m going to read another library book that I will hopefully like more. At least it will be shorter.

I hope all your books are page-turners and leave you wanting more after the last page. And if they aren’t, I hope they end soon.
