I would like to say that I loved this book and that I adored this story….but its sad to say that I will be marking this as a DNF. I actually haven’t done that in a long while actually so I always hate having to do it, but I have found that as a reader, blogger, book reviewer its a necessary evil and one that I don’t enjoy especially when I have so much admiration for the author. She has always worked for me in the past, which is why this DNF is so painful for me. Because I did give it till about 57% before I called it quits and normally I try to quite earlier if I am not into the story or the book just isn’t working for me. I don’t think that it was the writing at all, because at the beginning I was into it actually. I was very intrigued by the prologue. But the story actually was so CONFUSING. It had so many players, new ones coming in all the time and I was feeling dazed out of the confusion trying to work it all out and how on earth they had anything to do with this pair. Even after 50% of the story we didn’t really see them interact that much together and that can be frustrating to see.  I also didn’t feel like this book had much direction that much. It felt so NOT Katharine Ashe, the story just felt off for me, and after a whole week of trying to get through it I gave up on it.
