I really wanted to go into this book loving it. I wanted to sit there and be drawn into the world and never want to leave. Instead, I was bored out of my mind. There was nothing about this book that hooked me in. I didn't care about the characters, nor did I care about the world that was being created. Despite the fact that I enjoyed the writing style, the fact I didn't care about the characters left me disappointed. When I don't care about the characters, I don't care about the story. I found the character very unlikable. They were boring and so selfish. Sure, their lives were difficult, but they were just disappointing. Maybe if I enjoyed them more, I would've been okay with their choices in life, but seeing how I found them boring, I just got annoyed with everything they did.

For me, the story went no where. I will sadly not be recommend this book to anyone, nor do I look forward to any other book in the series. In all honesty, this book turned me off to anything this author writes. Sucks, because he looks well loved, but this book was just so boring that I don't think I will ever give him another chance.
