Yeah, I'm probably grumpier than was really warranted for the book, except I am a bit reacting in advance to the people who will go on and say, "No, no! You will like it! Really!" And I am just too lazy to read more of her to find out, especially given my to-be-read stack.
Urf, not grumping at you, just grumping in general.
I'm confused; you read *some* of Komarr and didn't finish it, and read *some* of Cordelia's Honor and didn't finish it?
Oops! I reread my sentence up there and realized it makes no sense whatsoever. Anyway, yeah, I read most of Komarr and most of Cordelia's Honor, and for both, I just sort of wandered off at the big plot climax and never really went back. Alas, much of her dialogue hasn't worked for me either. I suspect it's an incompatible style thing.
But hey! This means I can go spoil myself on all the Miles books and finally read fic and whatnot!
