I was tearing through this book, addicted to what would come next and each chapter's last sentence demanded me to continue, that culminated in not that much. Male ego?
It was an enormous build up to nothing. I feel cheated. The final chapter didn't do what the end of each previous chapter did; it didn't make me want another installation on the heels of finishing.
This was an audiobook and the actor would benefit from practice in voice variance. I could tell thr characters apart mostly, but only Anna's wasn't annoying.
I'm disappointed and irritated. I don't regret reading it, not like I regret reading others, but I need a palate cleanser.
