A review by val_theburrowofstories
Tin Man by Sarah Winman

Did not finish book. Stopped at 20%.

(Tried to read this in January 2025)  

  • The thing is, I don’t even know why I keep giving literary fiction a chance when that’s not my fav genre and the last 2 books I DNF were literary fiction as well. So after this I’m going to delete so many books from my TBR list.
  • It was slow paced, I didn’t like the audiobook because the audio wasn’t “clear” like there was “noise”, and at 20% nothing had happened yet. I don’t think I was a big fan of the writing style either.
  • I don’t know what the hell is happening with the books I read lately because I swear the cover and synopsis and title give me an idea, an expectation, and then nothing like that happens.
  • Alas, I wasn’t in the mood and I think I started this knowing I would most likely DNF it. I just had two days where I DNF 2 books and then this book didn’t help.
  • To be honest, there’s not really a logical reason on why I DNF this other than I am not a fan of contemporary and literary fiction. I was craving for some fantasy or more action packed stories but because I didn’t listen to myself I ended up with 3 DNF books back to back.
