A review by annazapalac
A Deadly Education by Naomi Novik

2.0

Did not like, did not care. I read the summary on Wikipedia while listening to the book since I was having such a hard time focusing on it, and the summary actually makes the book sound pretty interesting. It's a shame the concept wasn't executed well, which I blame on the author's style of storytelling; rather than working within the world she created, it felt like she was working ~on~ it. Constant infodumping obscured the plot (and, ironically, the world itself) and prevented me from developing interest in the characters, story, or world.
