    DNF, unfortunately.

    I wanted to like this book. But after getting 60% of the way through, I couldn't go on. I would reread something because my mind had drifted. I thought I got into the groove when Dodo was taken, but then it dragged on. While the plot was lacking for me, the individual sentences and concepts were notable and even impressive at times.

    Not a huge fan of this writing style sadly, so I don't think this will be a fast read by any means.

    “There is no worse fright than to know the vulnerability of the man who employs you, whom you need to remain strong because you yourself are powerless”
