Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell

adventurous medium-paced
  • Loveable characters? No

1.0

*SPOILERS* Boring. The idea was there but all of the stories are about different power struggles in different periods of time and it gets tired so fast. I dreaded reading it toward the last couple chapters I just wanted it to be over with. Also the main character of each story is a reincarnation of the others but Mitchel hardly connected the past lives to each other, the references were there but they weren’t significant to the story. I feel Alex Landragin did a better job of this theme of interconnected stories with his debut novel Crossings
