Gretel and the Dark by Eliza Granville
2.0
So I read the first 100 pages of this book...which is the minimum I require of myself before I am allowed to put a book down. I just couldn't get into it.It didn't speak to me or appeal to me in any way.
It is weird, because I don't necessarily think that the book was bad. It was well written, and had an interesting concept. It is the type of book that I generally enjoy. I think it was more that I wasn't in a head space for this particular style of literature at this point. Life stuff and so forth, I wasn't interested in the dark heavy and at times dragging pace of this work. But...I am open to trying it again in future.
