A review by minimicropup
The Extinction of Irena Rey by Jennifer Croft

Did not finish book. Stopped at 10%.
The synopsis of this sounds sooo good. Maybe I’m not smart enough to appreciate the literary elements here, but the writing style is driving me crazy. Every little thing is described in the most convoluted insider purple prose foreshadowing way possible in excruciating detail. And yet for all that word salad I often have no damn clue wtf is going on 😂. It’s so bogged down but also feels like a scholarly/literary arts thing maybe. Either way it’s something I’m not appreciating and getting frustrated with, so I’m calling it. Def not for me.
