A Cruel Light by Cyndi MacMillan
2.0

I’m willing to believe it isn’t the book, it’s me. I did not like this. But it’s also not that I didn’t like it, it’s that nothing about it appealed to me, which is odd since this is 100% my wheelhouse. 

I’m a speed reader and this took me a week to finish. The reason for that being that every time I sat down to listen to it, I found literally any excuse to turn it off - an app that will shut off the sound, steaming my carpets, using power tools…you know loud things that aren’t compatible with audiobook listening - until I forced myself to just listen and get it over with so I could move on. 

So what about this didn’t do it for me? I have no idea, but not one bit of me could get into it. 

Thanks to NetGalley for the audiobook!
