I am on 30% and I don't really care about the story line. I love all his other books but I find 29 seconds to be meh. Not too sure if I should give up

Currently reading His Wife’s Sister. I’m about 40% of the way through and sometimes I think the storyline is very obvious and other times I have no clue what to think!
I finished His Wife’s Sister yesterday. Really enjoyed it right up to the ending which weakened/cheapened the story for me.
Shall have a spy at The Likely Resolutions now...
I’ve read this! It’s brilliant. I think there was a documentary on this case on Netflix but not sure if it’s still there.
Thank you to those for telling me to stick with Where the Crawdads Sing, I’m now 60% through it and really can’t put it down!
I finished Firefly Lane last night. I cried constantly for about the last 30 minutes of reading. I wasn't prepared for that 
I just looked at Where the Crawdads Sing on Amazon and the reviews are so mixed. I don't think I've seen so many 5 star and 1 star reviews.
I finished it and felt the ending was contrived. I enjoyed about three quarters of the book, glad I didn’t buy it. Now reading My Dark Vanessa.
Loved this! So did my husband.
I'm a bit late to the party but I brought and finished The midnight library by Matt Haig. Another book I enjoyed. I think I'm going to try to find a free prime reading book for my next read.
Finally got around to finishing The Man Behind Closed Doors last night and it was a reluctant 3 star rating from me. Good storyline but once again ruined by both repetition and the ending.
I haven’t paid for a book this year and I’ve read 7 books so far. All through Prime Reading or Prime First Looks. I’ve really enjoyed all but one them (Infinite by Brian Freeman). Definitely worth delving into the free books available - there’s some great ones there.
Prime reading does seem to have some good books. I found my last handful on there. I've also enjoyed the short stories available too.
I downloaded infinite as my prime choice this month. Is it not good?
Next on my list is The Quantum Curators and the Fabergé Egg by Eva St. John.
"Robinson Crusoe" by Daniel Defoe.
Haven't read it since I was about 11. Still a good read

It’s ok but it gets to be really repetitive and drawn out. The premise is definitely interesting but it could have been done so much better. I just didn’t care about it the more it went on. I normally read a book in 2-3 days but Infinite took me over two weeks, I just had no desire to open up the Kindle app knowing that’s what was waiting for me.
Finished the Tattle book club read last night. I’ll save my comments for that thread though, but I’d recommend.
Had my work book club today, so waiting to hear what that book choice is.
Not sure what to read in the mean time...

The Sister-in-Law by Sue Watson
Thank you SO much to everyone that vouched for Three Hours. I absolutely LOVED it and urge anyone struggling with it to keep going because the last third is amazing, full of suspense and so moving.
Next up I’m going to read The Push!

The Push is on my list - excited to know what you think.
The push was brilliant! My heart was in my mouth half the time I was reading it, it would make a good one for a book club.
That ending
I've just finished Olive Ketteridge, I've never been more depressed from a book I've read...ever.
I suggested it but it wasn’t voted for
read it myself after, excellent book!!!do it!!!!!
