Sourdough by Robin Sloan

This book started off with such a delicious richness that it just made you want to take another bite for the sheer taste alone. However after a while, the story started to take a weird route and you regretted trying to eat more.
The story was interesting but felt lost in places and was also unreadable in parts due to the author trying to force the story. It felt like Mr. Sloan started off with a great concept however he felt that he had to incorporate technology to complete the story and it just didn't come off right.
With Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore, he left me wanting more, at the end of this, I was glad I was done. I will give him another chance, but I just hope that he tells the story his story warrants next time rather than relying on what he feels safe telling.
