A review by rfwads
Dragonfly by Leila Meacham

Did not finish book. Stopped at 14%.

What a snoozefest! I honestly dreaded picking this book up every time. I pushed myself to get through over 100 pages, but the story just dragged on and on. The endless introductions of each character felt like a chore—two or more chapters for each character was way too much. I get that character development is important, but this just killed the pace for me. By the time anything started happening, I was so bored that I didn’t even care anymore. It’s rare for me to feel this disconnected from a historical fiction book, but this one just didn’t do it for me.
