The Unbroken by C.L. Clark

zyoung25's review against another edition

I didn't like the way the narration was talking *at* me instead of guiding me through it. At 90 pages in I already felt like I was being beat over the head with the point and it took me out of the story too many times for me to be able to keep going

DNF'd a little over halfway. Didn't think the characters were likeable in the slightest. Thought the story was pretty meh at best. That opening act felt pretty nonsensical. It picked up in the second act, but I still didn't find myself caring about what was going on.

Audiobook narration style really distracting, could have been half the length & main character not likeable so I couldn’t get into it
