baconbre 's review for:

Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell by Susanna Clarke

DID NOT FINISH: 40%

---

I just can't finish it. I loved the show based on this book and I really liked reading Piranesi so I thought it'd be a good read. If I keep trying to read this I will fall into a pit of book burn out I don't know when I'll ever escape. The structure of the story is borderline non existent the back and forth and random fairy tale every 5 seconds is driving me as mad as Lady Pole. For my own sanity I need to give up, and find books that are less of a chore to get through.
