I also saw a person buy the first book coming out of the store. I really enjoyed the series so far.
I just read the first book this week (in 2 days). Got about 50 pages in and ordered the 2 in the series to arrive from bookshop.org and I'm impatiently awaiting their arrival. I'm kind of broke but I'm debating whether I should just order the rest of the series now or wait until I finish the other books.
You could 'borrow' them via Z Library and then buy them later when you have more more uncommitted cash.
How well written are they? I've tried a lot of popular books lately and they've been full of plot holes, gratuitous fan fic and exposition plus loads of other shit an editor should have caught.
Just follow the 50-page system.
If DCC hasn't grabbed you by 50 pages in, you can be reasonably sure you won't like the rest of it. Trust me.
This is my system with any book, in fact. There are too many good books waiting to be read for me to power through something I'm not enjoying at all.
I have never heard of that rule before but I love the idea, I will def final start to implement that into my reading because I have stuck through books longer than I needed to and took me too long to realize I didn’t care to read them!
In Canada our bookstore has a heathers pick. She’s the ceo or, idk someone high up. You can probably google but it isn’t important. She reads everything. Someone asked and she says she reads 3 chapters and if it doesn’t hook her, she drops it.
