A review by poppywarphan
The Stars Undying by Emery Robin
Did not finish book. Stopped at 50%.
Dnf at 50%
So, this wasn't for me. If you're looking for something complex, well-thought-out that requires paying very close attention and thinking, rather than excitement and action, this might be your cup of tea.
I don't like dnf'ing books. I just did not see any point in continuing it. I don't care about a single character. There's a lot of jumping back and forth between characters at the beginning. I only started processing what was going on about 20 percent in. Out of everything, the most interesting part to me was the worldbuilding, which wasn't really explained. If I'd describe my experience reading this in one word, it would be boring. I don't think I've ever felt this indifferent about a book. It is nicely written and complex, It just didn't draw me in.
