The Circus Infinite by Khan Wong
Did not finish book. Stopped at 24%.
Dnf @ 24%
I’m not sure if I’m coming back to this in the future but this was a chore to get through, it took me two days to get to chapter 2. I liked the world the author created, and as far as I’ve read, it wasn’t cohesive but I did appreciate the inclusivity; world building is a big part of my enjoyment. The writing too, wasn’t to my liking. I can’t really pinpoint what put me off but it struggled to keep me interested. It also took me awhile to understand that there were flashbacks, I had to backtrack several pages. Actually, I did this a lot even in the scenes set in the present. Like I said, things weren’t cohesive. I liked the found family going on here and the characters that took Jes in were good ones in my opinion, however, these weren’t enough to keep me going especially when nothing has piqued my interest.
Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the arc!
