I heard The Historian is bookino and nails vampires from a historic perspective, in addition to being downright terrifying.

Any anons able to confirm/deny that?

Bullshit. I really wanted to like this book but God is it boring as hell. I hate not finishing a book but I just can't waste one more minute reading something akin to watching paint dry.

I kept waiting for the story to take off and for something, anything, exciting to happen. This felt like an exercise in cold war geography and a self-indulgent author letting us know how smart she is and how much research she'd done. Who cares?! The premise for this book was really intriguing but the story gets lost in page after page of unrelenting descriptions and cryptic dialogue. I didn’t care about these characters and found them frustratingly rigid and emotionless.

The Historian was just too much history and geography and not enough action for me. The first few pages include quote after quote from reviews raving about how “thrilling” and “gripping” and “terrifying” it is. Excuse me? It’s so boring I could hardly stay awake while reading it. I sent this crap straight to the used book store.
