I actually have a WIP that I always intended to be non-linear, and it might still end up being so. Anyway, I think my issue was that I read it by audiobook and I do like to hold a thumb in pages sometimes so I can glance back and refresh my memory of where and when I am reading about, but obviously that's not possible with an audiobook.<br />The rest of these, honestly, I don't think I have the heart or the stomach for!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4071987159907366396.post-92001477585223600972016-06-16T09:34:50.708-04:002016-06-16T09:34:50.708-04:00I'm even more intrigued by The After Party now...I'm even more intrigued by The After Party now, and your review makes me feel better about waiting to read The Nest.
