Started out well but by the quarter mark became just too long, too messy, too boring.

Long can be fine. Messy, probably not, but you never know. Boring is never good. Combine all three of those and you have a very un-fun reading experience on your hands.

I kept thinking, "well, it's probably just this part that's boring, I'm sure it's going to get much better soon."

"Or by the halfway point."

"Or surely by the end."

"Or never."

"Oh, well."

Plot: hangs on the thread of a single conversation that one character refuses to have. I still don't know why. "Joe would like to know who he really is." "Great, let's spend around 350 pages not telling him and call it a book."

Characters: weirdly uninteresting, and often unbelievable. Main character: possibly suffering effects similar to those of lobotomy due to too many time jumps.

Me: possibly suffering effects similar to those of lobotomy due to too many time jumps. Please help me by blinking twice if I am still in the year 2022.
