John of John by Douglas StuartMy rating: 1 of 5 stars
I really disliked this book.
It was rated relatively highly and had some nice blurbs but I don't get it.
- It's long by at least 100 pages.
- It reads slow as molasses in Antarctica
- Most of the characters are unlikeable (some of this is not their fault)
- It's set in 1990s rural Scotland so there's so much vernacular that goes undefined. I don't mind looking up an occasional word but this book simply wasn't good enough for me to do it every few pages.
Hard, hard pass on this one.
