Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Thread of Death (Elemental Assassin, #5.5) in Books
Sep 5, 2019
This is the first novella I've read in this series and I liked that despite how short it is that we still got to see Gin kicking arse.
Mab's funeral takes place in this and you'd expect it to be a rather sedate affair, right? WRONG! Two attacks in such a short story and seeing it all happen from three different viewpoints was an interesting angle for it to happen.
I'm expecting good things from the next book in the series now.

Overall, this was a great read. Some parts were completely terrible while others were absolutely fantastic. I would only reread parts of this novel as certain stories are better than the others but all in all, it’s a 4 star read.

I heard this was originally meant to be a short story. I believe that 100%
I liked the character and I like what this book stood for and all of that, I really did. I just can't get over how long it took me to read this short little thing, so I'm going to focus on that.
This would've been a great book if it were 50-60 pages long. But it's nearly 200! It just dragged on and on, so much so that I could hardly remember the enjoyable thing I had just read 20 minutes prior. The length ruined it that much!
I'm curious to know what this story would've been like if Gaiman had kept it as the intended short story. Probably much better. Probably.

I really don't know what to think about this collection of short stories. This is the first book by Flannery O'Connor that I have ever read and I just don't know.
These short stories are full of cynicism. I have a feeling that Flannery O'Connor and I would probably get along due to our cynical natures. I enjoyed the book yet I have been left wanting a lot more. I'm not usually a fan of short stories because I want more. I hate how disjointed they are and I tend to just want a novella or novel instead.
Some of the stories I loved and others I just wasn't fully impressed with. All in all, I'm glad that I read this book but I probably will not read anything else by Flannery O'Connor.
