The Drowned Tomb By James Fahy War is coming… ![]() ![]() The majority of this book is the main character Vanessa having flashbacks of her marriage with Richard and how "omg he was so perfect then" and "omg where did it all go wrong?" and it was so boring. ![]() The title and the goodreads description of this book make it seem like it's going to be some crazy twisted love triangle with so many plot twists and that it's going to be so different form anything else you've ever read, but in reality it's this ridiculously annoying love triangle with a main chaarcter who is obsessed with her ex-husband and a few lame "plot twists" get thrown in along the way. It took so much energy to finish this book because of how bored I was by the story. I made an update around the 200 page mark where I complained that nothing interesting had even happened in the story yet and I wasn't sure if I should finish it, but I did and. It's a mystery that is dragged out throughout the entire book, that I couldn't give two fucks about honestly. ![]() This book claims to be a suspense/thriller but it's neither of those things. The description for this book on goodreads literally says: "Discover the next blockbuster novel of suspense, and get ready for the read of your life." Blockbuster novel of suspense?

The Fifth Elephant brings the stories of Carrot, Angua and Vimes (and even Colon) to a fitting, even inevitable conclusion, and caps off the story of the Watch as a whole – leaving Night Watch as one last ‘Scouring of the Shire’ epilogue. This is where the world shuts down, gets a little smaller – from here on in, Discworld will seem smaller, and in a way less real. Some of them may even be great.īut this feels like the end. The Discworld cycle didn’t just collapse after this installment – it went on for more than a dozen more novels. Is it just because Pterry is dead? I don’t think so: I think it’s true of the book itself – this book feels like the end of Discworld.
