Trying way too hard to be a Shakespeare!
The story feels overly dramatic. It portrays the Russians as an all knowing government and Americans as a cow that doesn't know a thing about spying. That veers off the reliability of the fiction so much, it annoys. And the main character, the agent is shown to be such a crybaby. Oh my god. You are a CIA agent, act like one. She is made so cringey, like a 16 year old spoon fed baby! So much drama, such overbearing feelings, crying, life's unfair with me blah blah blah!
Then she goes ahead and pumps out so many babies! The couple are shown to be struggling after the first, but then they go ahead for so many!? That baffled me.
The author's attempt at visualisation, in one word- it sucks. She tries to paint a picture with so many useless details its astounding. If you removed all of them, I bet the books' thickness can be cut in half.
And the narrator, her attempt at mimicking a strong male character was comical.
Like come on, you can't physically do it with your voice, then stop overdoing it! Just narrate it normally in your own voice, the listener isn't stupid that they won't understand who's saying what.
So many times, I stopped listening, but I continued because my work is THAT boring and I don't have unlimited data.
