Irritating repetition

I loved the writer’s debut. Assured, sparky. And I was excited to read more of her work. However, my journey with her ends here. The constant repetition (“She stood in the hall. Stood in the hall of the great house. The great house that had weathered the storm. The storm that…”) is so grating. She uses the same tic in her dialogue so all the characters sound the same. Couldn’t finish it.
