Too much boring and not necessary dialogue

Disapointed. First time reader. Too much boring and not necessary dialogue. Drug at times. Ending too cute in my opinion.

Maybe I should've read the reviews.  I tried so hard to love this story. The plot was great and the storyline kept up interest, BUT...This was 90% narration and precious little dialogue between the characters.  There were also many open ended scenarios where the author narrated something happening with the characters but failed to include the outcomes, so that was a little irritating.
So, while I forced  myself through 60% of the book, I couldn't handle it anymore. Had the characters had dialogue and interaction between each other it would've been a great book.
Sadly, this one was a disappointment.

Too much dialogue and poor script.  I had to force myself to read the entire book.

Not recommended reading for those who like a good story filled with action and mystery.

Boring read!

Telly, the main character was supposed to be in love with this guy?  What a huge jerk he was and what a pansy she was for putting up with him.  Some of the dialogue is redundant and boring.  I would give the book less than one star if I could.

Keeps you entretained, but the dialogs are just plain stupid.

I really wanted to like this movie, but the stilted dialogue and plodding pace became too much to bear after a while.

Ugh, some clever dialogue but really a pointless story.
Drags along going from an unlikely event to a completely uninteresting event.

This book dragged on, I really had to push to stay with it. The first two in the series were page turners but this one has chapter after chapter of unnecessary dialogue that contributes very little to the story.

Lots of talking ...unnecessary stretching of the subject. ...

There was way too much chatting about boring stuff, irrelevant to the story.  The characters were not very well developed, and the H. & He. we're both very stodgy, prim and proper.  In addition, Belle was totally boring and irritating.  She was very antagonistic towards Ash, and the whole thing didn't ring true.  I wouldn't recommend it.  Thank goodness it was free with KU.

While the plot is interesting, the rather mundane dialogue coupled with the predictable outcome made me glad I didn't buy this book.  The dialogue did not capture the personalities involved and the bland development of characters made it less than intriguing.

I can't count the number of times I rolled my eyes at the immature dialogue or the predictable, Saturday morning cartoon events and character interactions.  I did finish the book, but it took me over a year.  And it wasn't worth it.  Conflict is resolved way too fast, dialogue is trite, "surprises" are predictable.  Not to my taste, but if it's still free and you have time to waste, the premise is interesting.

Maybe that's what the author had in mind.  Sooooo much dialogue that it detracted from the storyline.  Actually there was no story line except for some inane shooting.  Save your time and your mind from total boredom and don't read this book.  P.S. I skipped many pages towards the end just to find out the killer and even then I wanted to rip my hair out with yet even MORE dialogue.  Good grief.

I was so excited to read this book, despite the negative reviews. Now I know why it got slammed so hard. The dialogue is very dull and cheesy, the author feels he has to describe every person and where they are from once they make a statement, nevermind the fact that the person is just a side character that you will never hear from again. His main characters are childish and boring. The descriptions of the dinosaurs are awful, I had to look them up everytime he introduced a creature just to see what it looked like because his descriptions were so bad. Worst of all was this book was more about terrible dialogue than the dinosaurs and medieval combat. The worst battle descriptions ever, there is no thrill, suspense or vivid descriptions here its almost PG-13. Avoid this book.

I did not like this book. The idea for the story is wonderful but the book itself is bogged down by lengthy dialogues and silly characters. It's too bad. What a great idea for a story but what a boring book.

I ordered this book because I read something else by this author and really enjoyed the story. This is not the case with this book. There is so much reiteration and the character is boring.

This also has what I like to call GDT syndrome or girl with the dragon tattoo. Instead of good dialogue I am forced to read cursing and cliche's interspersed between a myriad of unnecessary details that do not move the story along. I do not care whether or not she decides to vacuum. I do not care if she is putting the groceries away or how many people tell her she has OCD and I do not care if wearing a pink, blue, and yellow outfit is called color blocking.

I want good characters with an interesting story. What I got was a boring woman with a blah life and some serious man issues. Am I supposed to sympathize with a woman who sleeps with a man on the first date? Hours after being dumped by another man? Um, no.

What happened to the witty dialogue? I read the sample of this book and was so excited to dive in. The witty remarks, stubbornness, and differences between the H/h really pulled at me... and then, it just vanished. The rest of the story becomes your usual formulated romance which would've been okay if I felt a real connection between the two.

Once they get together I never felt any intimacy between them which I think is because there were no sex scenes. It just tells us they had sex, never shows us. The few details we do get are pretty tame and boring.

There's no character development throughout the book and that mainly be due to the fact that the characters have no personality for 80% of the book. Essentially, great idea and beginning storyline but it soon became predictable and cheesy.
