I completely agree with your review of Cloud Atlas! I found it a really tough read, I just couldn't get into it. From the praise it received I was expecting to be blown away, yet the links between the stories were almost irrelevant and the stories themselves weren't strong enough to stand on their own. I think anyone who gets to the final page of this book deserves a pat on the back!
I actually managed to finish it aha, in some massive hope that things would eventually all come together and make sense, but I was totally let down! It's nice to know someone else out there agrees with me! Everyone has their tastes, and ours is just a bit odd!
