Midnight Tides by Steven Erikson
My rating: 3/5 cats
okay so i finished it. it took me forever, and it was exhausting, but when i was able to get on a streak of reading, i enjoyed it. it’s not poorly written, i just have so much difficulty with genre fiction where everything has an unfamiliar name and there’s so much dense backstory which, reading mid-series, i wasn’t privy to. (‘fonso said i didn’t need to have read any earlier ones, but a customer told me i had been done “a disservice” reading it that way) but that’s his reputation—steven erikson—he will just throw you into a world and give you tons of characters and jump you around until you are dizzy. it felt good to have read it, but it feels good to be over, too. i can read other books much faster…
