gtemby 's review for:

The Book of Air and Shadows by Michael Gruber

2.0

---

I struggled with this one. The discovered manuscripts that drive the plot are between each chapter. i found them very challenging to read and I often got to the end of them and then realized that i hadn't comprehended a single word. I would have to go back and slog thru and they often felt more like homework than pleasure reading. I started skimming half way through. Due to that I struggled to get on board with the characters that were so excited and engaged with the letters.
