threerings 's review for:
A Beautiful Blue Death
by Charles Finch
The book completely failed to interest me in the plot or characters, but the worst part was that I kept stumbling over the language. Finally, on page 72, I came across two sentences that made me put the book down forever.
"But at least, he thought with grim satisfaction, he was ahead of Exeter, who was still twisting his whiskers and thinking the girl had destroyed herself while his underlings stroked his ego."
AND
"He read quite contentedly until eight, when he had to dress for supper with his friend Lord Cabot, who shared with him a sportsman's interest in politics, and a few friends, at their club, the Travelers."
COMMA OVERLOAD KILLED MY DESIRE TO READ THIS BOOK DEAD.
