A review by melbsreads
Roil by Trent Jamieson

Did not finish book.

This one's a DNF. I tried, I really did. I made it through 183 pages before giving up. For some reason, I just couldn't get into the story. I feel like there wasn't enough background information provided about the Roil, and that made it really difficult for me to actually understand what was going on and feel engaged with what was happening. It's a shame, because I really enjoyed Trent Jamieson's Death Most Definite books, and was hoping that this would be in a similar style. It's really really not. The writing feels quite choppy, and when you've got the story told from two different points of view and by the half way point, they STILL haven't met (which, let's face it, was the inevitable outcome)? It just felt like I wasn't getting anywhere.
