Cant tell if I’m not super passionate about it bc I read it during term and thus took 6 weeks to finish it or bc it just wasn’t all that it could have been. I DID enjoy reading this, and I was always excited for what came next, but I think maybe all the character jumping made me less connected? I would rly get into a viewpoint and then we’d leave them behind:( but maybe that’s life? A good read, but I wouldn’t say it’s one that is going to stick — which is not to say I didn’t enjoy!
