A review by wishbea
The Ruthless Lady's Guide to Wizardry by C.M. Waggoner
Did not finish book. Stopped at 41%.
The second I put this book down I realised I didn't care about the characters and I had no interest in what happens next in the story.
The chapter titles seem like they're trying to be funny but come across as pretentious. The author's commitment to the very unique narrative voice is impressive, but attempting to understanding Delly and all the made up slang made reading this book a chore. The pacing is dreadful too, which doesn't help.
The classism is done in an interesting way and the queernorm society was intriguing at least.
