Mike Christiansen answers “I'm 60 pages into Fates and Furies and not...”

Denise Bogard asked this question about Fates and Furies:

I'm 60 pages into Fates and Furies and not sure if I want to continue. The voice is very unappealing. (I loved Arcadia.) Should I stick with it???

I found the voice at times to be highly contrived and stylistic to the point if distraction. BUT I have to say I'm glad I pushed myself further before quitting. One hundred pages in I found myself hooked by relatable characters and intriguingly evolving relationships. I'd enthusiastically advocate for sticking with it.(less)
