Couldn’t get into it. Maybe a little too religious in content?

I recognise the immense skill of this author but the density and slow pace of her stories really loses my attention fast.

I could not finish this book, I was simply too bored which is absolutely not a reflection of the quality of the book and more of a reflection of what I enjoy reading.
