A review by solflo
Mordew by Alex Pheby
Did not finish book. Stopped at 21%.
last read chapter: 25
when i actively stop reading to double check reviews you know things are getting dire. for shorter books i generally push through but here i decided to quit while i was ahead. the book has interesting ideas and setting but the pace is grueling and nathan is unpleasant to follow around. but more importantly i simply lack the patience to read something with a background radiation of misogyny, and the reviews weren't reassuring in this regard. this is a 2020 book. how is it even possible to go a hundred pages without a single woman with personality traits other than "female".
