The Lies of Locke Lamora seemed like an intriguing book with an interesting premise when I first picked it up. It was a recommendation from Goodreads, but it wasn't to my liking.
I didn't finish this book and, sadly, didn't get too far into it either. It had too much swearing and vulgarity for my taste. I gave it about 30 pages, but then had to put it down. I don't need any more swearing in my head. It's hard enough to get out when people around me are saying it.
So it is a DNF for me.
Setting the stage for the story is one thing, but too much is too much. Setting can be developed in different ways that are more tasteful in my opinion.
Sadly, I was interested in where it was going. :(
