patchworkbunny reviewed Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell
Review of 'Cloud Atlas' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
When I started reading, I thought oh no, he's using lots of unusual words for the sake of it. I only carried on because it was a book group read and I'm glad I did. The first two stories bored me a bit but by the middle it started to click into place and I especially enjoyed the future parts. There's obviously a lot to think about but seems to be a lot of work and I'm still left not completely understanding it all. Hence why I've given it 3 stars instead of 4. A book that doesn't grab me in the first 100 pages usually just doesn't get finished (and then it would have gotten a 1).
