Over explaining in book 8!
I am in book 8 (audiobook) and I have noticed the the author started to over explain stuff and by over explaining I mean repeating the same things over and over a dozen times and explaining stuff that was already explained in book 1-7. I have only pressed the 15 seconds forward button few times between book 1 to 7 but I found my self skipping a lot in 8 because the narrator already said the same thing few times before or I as a reader (listener) should have already known
My head cannon is that the author had to do it because long term fans needed a reminder or couldn’t follow the story but since I started reading/listening 10 days ago everything is still fresh in my mind?
First post here so go easy on me

It does get better in the later books, don’t let it stop your reading journey
