Stain by A.G. Howard7/4/2023 I found the dialogue to be self-indulgent, disconnected and the characters to be ridiculous. It was dragged out to the point of pain -a bit like this review. To be fair, I believe that some or many people may enjoy this audio but The plot, characters and storyline was simple yet it managed to get caught up and convoluted. It might come down the fact that it just wasn’t for me. I found myself rolling my eyes and really struggling with the experience. I don’t usually listen to books that annoy me. I really wanted to abandon this book a quarter of the way through but for some strange reason, I decided to see it through to the end. From time-to-time, (rarely) I will decide to not finish an audiobook but I will give fantasy books a little extra time to engage-especially if it requires setting up realms and complicated characters. That said, I committed to listening and finishing Stained. By the time I realized I just really didn’t like the book, it picked up a little. I found getting through this long audio difficult and tedious. Typically, I really enjoy the Fantasy genre and the occasional fairytale-based.
