Reply to comment by pleasereadthanks in 1st case by James Patterson are all his books like this? by History_fangirl

I tried reading In the name of a rose. But i just couldnt. Ive read novels with that kind of language/writing style before fine but i just couldnt with this one. It killed my will to read for 6 months lol. Cause i was on i think chapter 5? But i cant DNF books, i hate doing so. So i couldnt start another book without finishing that one. So it just killed my will to read. Until i coaxed myself into letting go lol

Does it get interesting? Cause i dont wanna spend 2 chapters describing a building again

It's dense that's for sure, I loved getting sucked into that world and plowed through it, but I could see how it's not to everyone's tastes.

Yes, its very verbose, i was very into it until they reached the cathedral/abbey/whatever it was. Might give it another go
