I'll say it again. Just want everyone to understand that because yeah, Project Hail Mary blew my socks off and I was wearing mid-length Nike Elites.
7 Books I Didn't Like
But for me at that time, this was way too slow for me.
This extremely captivating and exciting concept. Absolutely parted out and did nothing noteworthy at all for me.
I did like how it was written. I think VE Schwab is very talented. A lot of the writing was very metaphor heavy, but I just think it's longer than it needed to be.
And I didn't hate this book. I liked this book. It's a solid book.
This experience reading this felt like the experience of reading required reading in middle school or high school. Like it wasn't fun at all. It slogged most of the time.
But boy, I'll tell you, the main character Sutter in the book is so insufferable that he singlehandedly curb stomped any potential enjoyment I would have had reading this.
But for me, I remember at the time, it felt too out there. It felt too whimsical, almost kitty.
