Having being recommended by my favourite Booktuber I had too many high hopes for this book. However I didn't want to DNF this book because I thought I need to finish it somehow to give this an honest review. It took me 2 months to finish it.
The reasons why I didn't like the book were:
1. The story is really slow paced and too long.
2. The characters have the same repetitive name and the same or similar destiny (kind of the main theme so this is not a flaw or anything)
3. There is so much of things happening within a few passage. I was losing interest and concentration.
BUT a lot of people love this so this might be the book for you even it's not for me. I would love to give this book a chance again may be in a couple of years. To see if I change my perspective. However I am glad I finished the whole book!
