Perdido Street Station by China Miéville
Did not finish book. Stopped at 28%.
I've tried, really tried to give it a chance, but man is this book is just grotesquely, absurdly, ridiculously overwritten to the point of a parody.
Here's a writer who'd never use ten words where they can fill ten pages: everything is over-explained and over-described to the point where it just becomes a wall of meaningless noise.
I've listened to 28% of the audiobook, and the plot so far, in it's entirety, could be described in a single sentence.
This book is exhausting.
