A review by quolwy
The Inheritance Trilogy by N.K. Jemisin
3.0
I'm disappointed that I didn't like this more. It was creative and clearly well written, and I think people who are more spiritual or enjoy reading about Gods and more abstract things might enjoy this, I however had to unfortunately discover while reading this that I have absolutely no interest in reading about Gods and it made me quite tired trying to get through this bind up.
I enjoyed the second book more than the first, but even then I found it dragged in places. I ended up picking up the audiobook from my library to ccomplete the remainder of it, and the audiobook was well done and I accredit it entirely as the reason I managed to push myself and finish this book.
I also struggled to connect with any of the characters, something about the writing style was odd to me and I didn't enjoy it.
I however, seem to be in a minority of people who this didn't click with, and I think you should take my review and rating with a grain of salt, I would say try a chapter or two before deciding if you would like to get this book, as all of my complaints could have been avoided if I'd listened to my gut when starting the book, instead of trying to push myself through it despite knowing I didn't connect with the writing style.
