The Crocodile Bird by Ruth Rendell
2.0
Welllll I’m certainly in the minority here. DNF with ~100 pages left.
Fiction is my escape from the world. This book felt like a literal chore to read.
The plot was somewhat interesting but I felt that all the little details bogged things down. I guess I’m just not one who needs to imagine every little detail of the scenery and surroundings... I can appreciate the beauty of this, I just feel it’s unnecessary, especially in a mystery / thriller type book.
I looked up a synopsis of the book instead of finishing it and am honestly glad I stopped. Life is too short to read books you don’t enjoy.
Wouldn’t ever pick up again, but definitely read it if you like long-winded stories!
