Made it 25% and I don’t understand the set up. It is taking too long for the stuff to start happening.
I just do not care about the plot of this book, which is sad because I have enjoyed other books by this author. I feel like this is too much like The Measure for me.
This just isn't a book that is working for me
All the Water in the World's is marketed as a gripping narrative of survival and adaptation in a flooded New York City. We follow our main character Nonie and her family as they are trying to navigate a flooding world.
This is a story that should be right up my ally, but the pacing of this story really did not work for me. I read to almost 40% and the info dumping is just continuing in a way that pulls me out of the story. There are also time jumps in the form of recollections of thing that have happened in the past and while some can do this well I personally did not enjoy it in this book. I feel like the concept for this book is so interesting but for me the execution just didn't work.
I appreciate NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for allowing me the chance to read this as an ARC.

This is the story of Ruby, who has a business of ruining people's reputations. We follow her as she makes her last "hit" and then starts seeing supernatural things.
I think that there are going to be many people who love this book but it will definitely not be for everyone. I think that the characters are decently fleshed out, but at 33% in I am fed up with Ruby and the ways she is willing to put herself and her friends in danger.
Thank you, NetGalley and Delacorte Press, for allowing me to read this book early.

This book isn't holding my attention, and the hiest-like elements are not working for me.
just not for me
