This was one of those situations where I have to admit that "it's me and not the book". I feel like if I had read this at a different time and especially not after quite a few similar reads, I would have enjoyed it way more, since it does seem to be right up my alley.

While this was by no means a bad book, or a book that I will not be recommending to friends, I found it slightly hard to get through it/enjoy it.
