This book is on the poetic or philosophical side of presentation. I am not a fan of philosophy and poetry. I intinute the questions but the answers are either ones I “got”or didn’t and the forest and the trees are illusive. The presentation is, I think, straightforward. And this could be the problem because there must be stuff that I am missing because I read this horrible boring book ( No offence) which I finished because I wanted to understand what was going on and why this was a thriller. I kept expecting something to happen. By the time I was halfway done not much was going on. It was disappointing. I didn’t want to abandon the book. Hart the main character, was a sad hero but it seemed like he was trying to do a good job so I felt like I owed it to him, or Sean Adams to finish the book. Despite the horrible excruciating endless mundaneness there is some character development and the few things we discover about the characters staying together in the remote nothingness is enough to lure the reader. It took me three weeks to finish The Thing in The Snow. It was definitely not a fast captivating read. I think however that the book probably expresses exactly what’s the author had intended. That by itself is a positive review. I give 21/2 out of 5.
