I haven't been reading a ton, so I'm only a little over 1/3 of the way through Harrow the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir. It's still enjoyable, but I am getting a little impatient for the story to just get on with it. It's not slow, exactly, but the nonlinearity does kinda make it feel like it's going backwards, or in circles, or sidestepping, rather than plunging into the meat of things.
I had the exact same issue when I read it (which was a while ago). The last 1/3 was the best part of the book, at least imo.
Glad it's not just me! I'll push through to that last third, thanks for the heads up.
