A review by ailurolily
A History of Wild Places by Shea Ernshaw

Did not finish book. Stopped at 49%.

I absolutely despised the prose in this book. I can't explain it. It felt so over the top to me. It seemed like there were colons and em dashes thrown about without much thought. I swear, I counted one at least every other page. It was insufferable.

The prose in a book can make or break it for me, and in this case it broke it.

I found the mystery to be underwhelming as well, and after discovering what the resolution was, I'm glad I quit.
