A review by baebebluejay
The Blind Assassin by Margaret Atwood

Did not finish book. Stopped at 8%.

This book does something that I really hate, where one of the characters is writing a book and the author intersperses the main story with this secondary book. Blind Assassin is a particularly bad example of this trope because the secondary text is so unbelievably boring. It is about an alien planet that has a ridiculous name, which is inhabited by a group of aliens with an equally ridiculous name.
I tried skipping those parts of the book, but the main story was unfortunately equally as boring. This was my first Atwood and I was totally disappointed.
