I have been meaning to read Alexander Chee's novel The Queen of the Night (#1,361) for some time now. However, when I finally picked it up to read it, I only made it through the first couple of chapters. It's not that the book wasn't well written, or on a subject of no interest to me; it was more the sheer volume of the prose, and the feeling that I could better spend my time elsewhere. Every book has its reader. The Queen of the Night just isn't the right choice for me.
